Description
Indulge in the irresistible flavors of a Raspberry Swirl Brioche Loaf, a classic homemade treat that’s quick and easy to prepare. This rich, buttery bread is swirled with bursts of tart raspberry preserves, creating a delightful contrast of textures and flavors.
Ingredients
– 3 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 3 large eggs
– 1/2 cup warm milk
– 1 cup raspberry preserves
Instructions
1. – In a large bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well.
2. – Add the softened butter, eggs, and warm milk. Use a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment to knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 8-10 minutes.
3. – Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
4. – Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles. Roll the dough out into a large rectangle, about 12×18 inches.
5. – Spread the raspberry preserves evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border.
6. – Carefully roll the dough up from the short side, creating a tight spiral. Pinch the seam to seal.
7. – Transfer the rolled dough to a greased 9×5-inch loaf pan. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
8. – Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
9. – Bake the Raspberry Swirl Brioche Loaf for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
10. – Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
For a shiny, golden crust, brush the top of the loaf with a beaten egg or milk before baking. Serve the Raspberry Swirl Brioche Loaf warm or at room temperature, and enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea.
