My neighbors love my sourdough brioche. And it’s super easy to make, too. With a sweet, stiff starter, milk, and eggs, you can create this fluffy delight!

Process

1

Levain Preparation

Combine the flour, water, sourdough starter, and sugar. Mix thoroughly and allow the stiff starter to ripen overnight until matured.

2

Autolyse / Initial Mix

Combine the flour, ripened starter, milk, eggs, and sugar. Mix until no dry flour remains and allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes.

3

Final Mix

Incorporate the salt and butter into the dough. Mix until the butter is fully emulsified and the dough is smooth. Let the dough rest for 30 minutes.

4

Lamination

Perform a lamination by stretching the dough out thinly on a damp surface and folding it back over itself to build strength.

5

Bulk Fermentation & Strengthening

Allow the dough to rest for 30 minutes. Perform one set of stretch and folds. Let the dough rest for a final 30 minutes.

6

Shaping

Divide the dough into three equal portions. Using a rolling pin, flatten each piece and roll it tightly into a cylinder. Place the shaped rolls into a prepared loaf pan.
