This weeks Tuesdays with Dorie was brought to you by Madam Chow of Madam Chow’s Kitchen

The broiche dough recipe is a really nice one. Very buttery and beautiful texture once baked.

These buns would’ve been perfect, had I checked them at the 20 minute mark, and not after the full 30 minutes. As a result, the sticky pecan topping came out like a hard caramel candy. Aside from that, I found one of the less cooked ones and after unhinging my teeth apart, I got a nice chunk of fluffy brioche bun. The whole thing wasn’t a complete loss, there were a few salvages among the ruins, but next time I’ll keep a closer watch on my buns in the oven!

Oh and stay tuned for a chocolate bread pudding that I’m going to make with this georgous broiche loaf.

I saw a while ago, Ina Garten making a brioche bread pudding. It looked so amazing. But I cringed at the amount of butter. Now I am over the butter shock. (Have to eat little pieces). Now Iam wowed by the thought of chocolate bread pudding.

Also, your patio graden looks so nice.

Sorry they got a little crispy, but your pics are great! The loaf looks so perfect.

mari Says:

Have no fear, your buns still look great! I nearly over baked mine as well, but luckily the caramel didn’t burn. I’m eagerly awaiting your chocolate bread pudding post, as I considered making bread pudding with my loaf of brioche, but couldn’t resist just eating it toasted with (more) butter and jam.

Shari Says:

Great pics! Looking forward to your bread pudding post!
