Notes

Tip from my kitchen: the brioche taste best fresh from the oven. Since there is no sugar in the dough they dry out a little faster – warm them briefly before serving, or freeze them individually and reheat as needed. You can mix the dough the evening before and let it rise in the fridge overnight. The apple filling swaps easily for pear or plum, and a little jam brushed on top makes these not-too-sweet brioche even fruitier.
