The Fluffiest Brioche Bread Recipe By June | Delish 

A few crucial updates to this recipe following everyone's response! 1) If you're in a hot and humid climate, reduce your eggs down to 5. Also keep your butter on the cooler side so that it can help chill down your hot dough as it mixes in. 2) If your dough is having trouble coming together, before or after the butter, crank up your mixer speed. As you see in the video, you will have to hold the mixer down because it's a lot of agitation! If you're following your mixer manual and staying on a low speed like 2 or 4, the dough will never pull away.

The dark color is very good, most people bake it too light, its not danish. Milk is rarely used in brioche recipes but its the best way, it makes the loaf more moist. perfect results. I'm a retired french pastry chef.

I tried this tonight without a stand mixer, just used a plain rubber spatula. My arms died but the bread was SO GOOD!!

"I'm so happy whenever there's bread." - that is so me!!!

I loooove how you explain the recipes, so easy to understand, so interesting. You're a great! Thank you so much for your good vibes!

My hubby tried this over the weekend - it was amazing! I really appreciate how you tell us what we're looking for and why.

I love June’s self confidence and straight forward manner, keep it up June 🤗

Never tried SPONGE process until now and I have to say my bread came out with layers of soft textures. It is the best ever!! Thank you.

Best brioche I've ever made. Thank you for the recipe and video!!

Absolutely boss!! My daughter made this for her school project! Wow awesome for sure. She was able to follow and bake all by herself. She’s 16 with SOME baking experience. But I was still very impressed and let her know she is now responsible for making this for our Easter dinner! Thank you!

It’s become so hard to find good brioche. This recipe was just perfect. The bread came out so soft. Thanks June!

Of all the many brioche recipes this has the greatest detail - brilliant and thank you!

Came out just like the video. I used Almond milk instead of cow's milk and it was picture perfect. One i baked immediately and the other today morning. Both were so alike and very tasty.

I can’t wait to trying this recipe out! Thank you June for the lesson!

I have seen a lot of Brioche bread recipes here on RU-vid but I must say that Your demonstration has got to be the best in every way: recipe, method, and overall video production. BRAVO CHEF.

Fantastic! Thank you for the amazing recipe! Very thorough - covering every nuance about the process. Much appreciated. Turned out amazing. Totally worth the time.

I JUST MADE THIS, and let me tell you this is the best bread i've ever HAD!! trust this recipe please... here's something i need to tell you guys.. the mixing process. i made this in my mom's kitchen aid heavy duty. i read the manuals before and it said no more speed than 2 for kneading yeasty dough.. but yeah june's right, can't just use 2 speed! its NOT enough. When kneading the dough (haven't put butter in), it's SO WET, like WET WET! but yeah theres nothing i can do, i didn't want to add more flour so i just CONTINUED KNEADING, it took so long but it finally come together, trust the process guys. after that it felt not that sticky, but i didn't do the kneading til it looks like june's. it's not that "bally" and still kinda stuck to the side but thats okay. i put in the butter and knead it with hand first until it kinda came together cause i thought its gonna take so long for kitchen aid to handle that. after it's better (not that wet and slimey) i put it back into the kitchen aid and mix with SPEED 6! u can't use speed 2 😭😭😭 then put it in the oven for 25 minutes in 180-185°C. ITS UNBELIEVABLEY the best bread!

Thank you much for this wonderful recipe! I just made it! It came out perfect!

Hi June! I made it and it came out perfect! You are a great chef and teacher. Thank you so much!!!

I just love June. June is so great. This is another WONDERFUL video.

I love how detailed she is in every step. Will definitely try this recipe.

“Yeasty boys” I love it! 😂

The best brioche recipe ever!!! Thanks June!

Super good and love the way she gives you the little tricks and ideas. Best recipe!

Just a heads up for anyone that works in weights and not cups: I made this last night and i could not get the dough to come together no matter how hard or fast I ran my mixer. I ended up adding flour after about 20 minutes. Then I looked again at the recipe and it says "3 cups or 384 g of all purpose flour"....So I looked it up and one cup of all purpose flour is 150 g, so it really should say 450 g in the recipe.

I have prepared my dough yesterday evening and both brioches are in the oven now. My whole flat smells fantastic, like a bakery and I can't wait to see what they will turn out to taste like 😍. Thank you for your video. It was the best brioche tutorial so far. 👍👍

Hi June. I made the dough yesterday and baked the Brioche today, and I have to agree... This is one amazing recipe! SUPER SOFT, SUPER FLAKY...! 😋😋😋 Thank you so much for sharing it with us.

I love brioche and I never knew it was made this way. Makes me respect it even more. Can't wait to try it! Thanks June!

We gave it a try yesterday and it turned out to be the BEST bread making ever! Thanks for the wonderful recipe!

Made this brioche recipe today and gotta say this was by far the best bread I have made. I tyipcally make the Japenese Milk Bread as its similar but gave this one a try. This breads beautiful stringy/soft pillow flakey texture was completly worth it. Prepping the bread took almost about 2 hours, proofing took about 6 hours, cook time about 35 mins. I started with 5 eggs intially but there wasn't enough liquid so had to add one more. I added no additional flour during the kneading or even the rolling out process the dough was super soft and not sticky after the first proof. Next I'll use some salted butter to notice more of that buttery flavour. And/Or add more sugar definitely depending on what flavour I'm going for

Hi June OMG the best brioche bread ever. sooo soft and delicious! Thank you for sharing your talent.

Your presentation made the bread taste even better without even tasting!! You made the baking fun and enjoyable!!! Thanks dear

I tried it and it was great. Very delicious and fluffy. Excellent recipe. Thanks 🙏 for sharing ❤️

"Adorable and endearing"...lol I love brioche! 😍🥰💞

This has got to be one of the best brioche I’ve evvveerrr made! I’ve made these twice and followed the advise of June and the rest and my bread came out so soft, fluffy and buttery!!! Even my old man who’s afraid of enriched bread says it’s awessomeee! What I did: My kitchen is really hot and humid so I made the brioche in my room at 25 degrees Celsius. I used the same amount of eggs as stated in the recipe but @ 60g each and it came out well. Working in a controlled temp does matter coz there’s lesser moisture and hot air circulating in the room and the dough was able to shape up during mixing. As I owe a Kenwood mixer, I use the 20 mins as a gauge and looked out for the texture of the dough and did the window pane test. Once I pass the WPT I know the gluten is formed. Thanks a lot June!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Thank you for this amazing recipe and video! This was only my second time making bread. The first time was a basic French loaf, and then this wonderful brioche. What an amazing tutorial video - I followed it to a T, and it came out perfect!!! And SO yummy!!

After watching this over and over for a month... I finally made a batch. Killed the yeast on my first starter but did it again and it was worth every moment. My mother, wife and inlaws approve and can't wait for me to do it again. I completely agree about bread making being therapeutic now.

june, your videos are so informative and entertaining!! i enjoyed this so much

Watching June while I cook and clean the kitchen is really therapeutic to me 😍

Made this today. My mixer got a workout. It turned out great. Was looking for a loaf bread recipe and saw this one. Glad I did. Loved the video. I followed step by step.

north, south, YEAST, west

I made this recipe several times and I promess is the best bread I've ever tried!! My family is always like "I brought you butter, prepare that delicious bread". Thanks June! You and your recipes are the best!!. From Bolivia!!

This recipe is fantastic and the instructions very clear. I made two loaves today and it was delicious! A total keeper!

First time making brioche and it came out awesome. I made Bakery level stuff! And you’re adorably fun to watch!

"It's got butter, butter, and more butter" Alright, you have my attention.

Just tried this receipe Yesterday. It was delicious! Thank you ! My mixing time was way much more than the indicated time on the video. But because there are lots of variables when baking bread, I waited until the dow is elastic enough. Again thank you!

Great explanations/demonstrations and really enjoyed your tips as well. Thank you for this.

I’m learning so much about baking every time I shoot with you, June! Butter makes everything better! 🖤

Heres a tip: If after the 25 minutes its still pretty runny and sticky, don't get discouraged and don't add flour. Keep going. If you have a kitchenaid artisan or the classic its going to be harder and a longer kneeding process since they are not as powerful as the professional series. i have an artisan and man it was hot at the end. It took me a solid 40 to 50 minutes of mixing to finally get it to where it was supposed to be. I suggest let your stand mixer get some breaks like 15 20 minutes. So the dough doesn't get dry in between, cover with a damp towel. Also make sure you have your speed up to the 8, and your gonna have to hold it or else its gonna fall off your counter.

I have made it today great result !!

First attempt and 100% results 💕thanks to u!!

I made cinnamon buns with this... I’M SHOOK! They were so buttery and pillowy and perfect. 😋😩 Def keeping this recipe up my sleeve.

This is fantastic- Metric measurements by gram in weight are most helpful in the video and in ingredients list --- VIDEO IDEA: Floating Islands.... Yum

Thank you so much! Just finished making some and it came out sooo good 😅

Great cooking/baking topped with a great personality :) Thank you!!

I really liked the recipe! I'm not a huge fan of brioche because of how dense and eggy they are but this recipe was delicious :) I readt through the comments because I have having a bit of trouble getting the dough to come together and I wondered if others were having the same issue, and it seems that I wasn't the only one! Well, here's my two cents on this recipe. So, this dough is like really really sticky but it does come together eventually. I would suggest using a paddle vs a dough hook especially if you have the 8 qt mixer. If you look her mixer she's using the smaller size machine which comes with a hook that closely resembles the paddle.. which is why I think some people are having more trouble than others. With the 8qt hook there is no way that dough will be able to create gluten since its so loose- there's nothing for it to grab on to(it's like trying make cake batter using a dough hook). After you see some gluten formation(dough will be shiny and you'll see like webbing around the bowl as the paddle is pulling the dough), change to dough hook and go about your business :) the final dough is very loose but do your window test to make sure it's done! I baked some off to see if it was good but I'm going to proof the rest overnight in the fridge because I figured it'll be easier to shape. Well hope this helps!! Happy baking everyone!

In Romani we called it cozonac and every little roll has a filling :).

I followed all the instructions, super successful!

It turned out so good. Thank you.

Thanks June.. I must said I thought my kitchenaid is going to die on me.. after more than 40mins of high speed kneading, the dough still abit sticky (I did add abit more flour), though in the end I did not be able to get the consistency as yours, but it did still raise beautifully, and I’m so happy with the end product.. its soft and fluffy and it’s so yummy!!! Everyone loves it!!!

I made this bread yesterday and its gorgeous!!! Thank you! I love your baking and the way you explain things. Will you please show us how to make croissants? Thank you, June. Xo

I need a love button.. this turned out beautifully! I'm so proud of myself. My family is too! I just started baking during this quarantine to keep me occupied and now found a new love for baking! Great recipe and superb directions. Thanks for the humidity update; I used 5 eggs. :)

Amazing Brioche recipe, 100% success, fluffy, flaky, buttery, and yummy. Thanks for the detailed instructions

She is so adorable!! and that Brioche too!!

Imagine making french toast with that!

I am making this as I type my bread is rolled tightly in the loaf pan for it’s final rise supper excited! I don’t have a mixer so my arms got a great work out I knead the do for a little over a hour by hand I didn’t stop till I seen the window pane that I seen in your mixer dough! 🥰 Thank you so much for this recipe ❤️

Great instruction! I love the look and efficiency of your kitchen!💕

The first time I made this, it came out perfect😋 even though I made it all by hand. Thank you for your clear and precise explanations and your video. I’ve made this four times during this pandemic and each time they were perfect, so delicious 😍. Thank you June, you’re the best 🤗

Update: the Preppy Kitchen made a bread pudding using brioche, guess whose 2nd brioche loaf I used? You both made my life freaking awesome.

I love your kitchen. Very roomy, well organized and clean.

I just made this bread. I decided to start later in the evening, but I put it in the fridge. I was worried it'd be ruined the next day, but oh no, this recipe is the best I have trie so far. I might always make it and let it set over night. The flavor is so buttery and light. Thank you so much for this.

I want that center island in my kitchen!!!

Try not to use cup measures for baking bread. It will not give you consistency. She is using a scale and she mentioned the weights used.

Thank y’all so much dearest 🌹 Y’all such an inspiration 🥰 Appreciate y’all from the bottom of my heart 💜 Be Blissful Eternally 🙏😇🌈

This is a really great recipe ❤️ My parents were very impressed! Thank you ✌🏼

June: I made this bread today; it came out absolutely delicious 😋 moist; fluffy and buttery. Thank you for your specific instructions. God Bless

I made this today and it came out PERFECT! Only thing I did wrong: walked away from my kitchenaid and it walked across the counter and crashed on the floor!

June , me encantan sus recetas y mas como ud las explica, tiene mucho angel !!!! Gracias !!!!

This recipe is fantastic!

In regard to your plastic wrap, pick up the following at Costco: Kirkland Stretch-Tite Plastic Food Wrap. It's a two-pack and each package has 750 square feet. Not only will this last you a long time but you will never struggle again to get that dang plastic wrap off the roll. It includes a slide cutter to make it quick and easy to get as much or as little plastic wrap as you want. Thanks for a very nice video.

It was really hard to work with at first cause it was very sticky and runny, then after 40 mins of kneading with extra flour added....it turns out perfect, the bread is soft and chewy....loved it, thanks for sharing🙏

I made those and they turned out just perfect 👌 thanks a lot for sharing this delicious recepie 😋

I kneaded the dough by hands and the recipe has about 70% moisture! Since the climate in my kitchen was 33 degree celcius today, so the butter was melt in the mixture. It was like I was kneading a cake batter and took me hours. But the bread was so wonderful and delicious that we finished it in 10 minites. Thank you for this wonderful recipe!

Girl! I'm going to live vicariously through you! I need to shed like 50lbs. I'm just watching so by brain can eat but my body won't.

My goodness that looks so good, with that sugar for me I think cinnamon and raisins should be added, but that's just me. Awesome vid thanks for the share!

Thank you for your receipt, my bread came out so perfectly

Bread turned out completely unreal. Unbelievably delicious. Making more now.

Great for when you can't buy bread anywhere because there is a pandemic *yay*

Tried this today and it was so wet it didn't get to the stage where I can form it to a ball. It is hot and humid here so maybe will lessen the eggs as suggested in the comments. I added ~half a cup flour at the 1 hour mark in the Kitchenaid but it was still super wet. My mixer was between 6 and 8 the last 30 mins of kneading. Stopped kneading at 75 mins, dumped it in another bowl, left it to rise, and prayed. After an hour I shaped it as best as i could and ended with a super soft loaf, i couldn't believe it! Will try this again with 1 less egg and recipe halved. :)

I tried this today and the bread was amazing. 😋Family loved it too. ☺️ Thanks for the recipe.

This has to be my favorite video. Brioche is just like heaven.

June, your personality is just delicious!

I find the 'east' pronunciation so charming and Chinese. For those wondering, in many languages in East Asia, like Chinese and Korean, there does not exist a 'y' sound before the equivalent of our 'ee' sound. That June can't even really hear the difference just means that it's a quirk of how she adapted to English coming from her first language's set of sounds as a kid. Most people will have little pronunciation quirks in their English depending on the languages they were either exposed to or spoke first at home, it's not any different than how our regional accents form.

I JUST TRIED BREAD FOR THE FIRST TIME! Your recipe was so clear and it came out amazing!!!! :)

I have an Kenwood Chef Xl and it work gloriously well on just medium speed. I used fresh yeast (for sweet bread- a swedish thing) and it campout puuuuurfect. First time I'm making bread ever so I'm super thankful for this awesome recipe!

This looks delicious I almost wanted to lick the screen

hey quick question i was wondering why ap flour? i see some with bread flour but i see some with ap flour i definitely know the difference between the two im not very experienced with brioches or how it even taste all i know bread flour is great for well bread😭
