How to make light brioche rolls
Brioche is a rich bread where butter and eggs are used with strong white bread flour.
Chefs light brioche recipe still uses butter and eggs but just not as much as a traditional rich brioche recipe.
These brioche rolls are so delicious that you could possibly just sit eating them off a plate rather than serving the rolls with a meal.
It is best to eat the rolls on the same day as baking as the flavour and texture is wonderful.
The shape of the brioche rolls also add an extra excitement to the recipe, it is really nice to eat these delightful mini brioche rolls and serve them to others who can enjoy them.
Just follow the step-by-step pictures below and get baking.
