Healthy Whole Wheat Brioche Bread
This healthier take on classic brioche offers a soft, slightly sweet, and fluffy texture while using more nutritious ingredients. By incorporating whole wheat flour, natural sweeteners, and yogurt or milk, this version provides more fiber and a balanced richness without being overly heavy.
Ingredients
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 large eggs (room temperature)
2 tablespoons natural honey
2 tablespoons oil (olive oil for a lighter taste or coconut oil for a subtle sweetness)
1/2 cup plain yogurt or warm milk
1 teaspoon instant yeast
A pinch of salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for a mild aroma)
Sesame seeds (for topping)
1 egg yolk (for brushing, optional but recommended for a golden finish)
Instructions
1. Activate the Yeast
In a small bowl, combine the warm milk (or yogurt if slightly warmed), honey, and instant yeast. Stir gently and let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes. This step allows the yeast to activate and become slightly foamy, which helps ensure a good rise.
2. Prepare the Wet Mixture
