Ingredients

For the Dough

For the Filling

For the Eggwash

Instructions

  1. Dry Ingredients

    Begin by whisking together bread flour, all-purpose flour, a pinch of salt, and granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl. This ensures the flavors are well-distributed for a perfectly textured dough.

  2. Liquid

    Gradually integrate the wet ingredients. Start with the water, then work in the soft butter — its softness crucial for seamless blending. Finish by incorporating the egg into the mixture.

  3. Knead

    Employ a stand mixer with a dough hook at medium-low speed for about 15 minutes, or if you prefer a hands-on approach, knead by hand on a floured surface, folding and turning the dough for the same duration.

  4. Add Fresh Yeast

    Introduce the fresh yeast into the dough after the initial kneading period. Continue to mix until the dough becomes smooth, elastic, and free of yeast clumps.

  5. First Rise of Dough

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, covering it with plastic wrap to prevent drying. Proof the dough in a warm, humid environment until it doubles in size, which should take about 1.5 to 2 hours.

  6. Chocolate and Portion

    Once risen, fold in the chocolate chips carefully, then divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, optionally using a scale for uniform size.

  7. Stuff with Nutella

    Shape each dough piece into a ball, flatten slightly, and place a spoonful of Nutella in the center. Seal the edges meticulously to prevent the filling from escaping, and then roll gently to maintain a smooth shape.

  8. Second Fermentation

    Arrange the filled brioche buns in a greased baking pan. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to proof again until puffy, which takes about 30 minutes.

  9. Eggwash

    Prepare the eggwash by beating half an egg with a few drops of your chosen liquid. Brush the buns with this mixture pre-bake for a glossy finish.

  10. Bake

    Bake in a preheated oven at 320°F (160°C) for about 30-35 minutes or until the brioche bombs turn a delightful golden brown. Keep a watchful eye, as oven temperatures may vary, adjusting the time as necessary to achieve that perfect hue.

Note

For even baking, rotate the baking pan halfway through the cooking time.

If the brioche begins to brown too quickly, tent it with aluminum foil to prevent over-browning.

For a more pronounced Nutella flavor, warm the Nutella slightly before adding it to the dough balls.
