How to make the Little Man Brioche, flavour almond?

  • Put the bread dough outside

  • Brush the top of each little man with a mix of one egg yolk and one tablespoon of water
  • Let the Brioche rise around 40 minutes in a warm environment
  • Cover it with a tea towel
  • Heat the oven at 250°C for 10/15 minutes
    Then put the brioche in the oven at 220°C for 15 minutes
    Tips Tip: if you want to have a crispy Brioche, put an oven tray in the oven during the pre- heating phase and after the pre-heating, add some cold water (about 20 cl) in the oven tray. The steam will add crisp to your bread
  • Then put your hot Brioche on a shelf to let it cool down
