Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
  • 1/2 cup whole milk, warmed
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast: In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm milk and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
  2. Combine the dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt.
  3. Bring it all together: Add the yeast mixture, eggs, softened butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients.
  4. Knead the dough: Mix until a dough forms, then knead for about 10 minutes until smooth.
  5. Let it rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise until doubled in size, about 1-2 hours.
  6. Shape the loaf: Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf.
  7. Second rise: Place the loaf in a greased loaf pan, cover it, and let it rise again for about 30-45 minutes.
  8. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  9. Bake to perfection: Bake the brioche for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
