FOR THE BRIOCHE LOAF 

  1. Combine the yeast, milk and 1 tablespoon of caster sugar in a small bowl.
  2. Set aside for 5 minutes or until frothy.
  3. Combine the flour, salt and remaining sugar in a large bowl and make a well in the centre.
  4. Pour yeast mixture and eggs into the well and stir until just combined.
  5. Turn on to a lightly floured surface. Knead for 5 minutes or until smooth.

  7. Gradually continue to add butter cubes, 2-3 at a time, and knead until well incorporated.
  8. Transfer to a large bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Set aside in a warm, draught-free place for 1 hour or until dough doubles in size.
  9. Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a bread tin with baking paper.
  10. Use your fist to knock back the dough and knead for 2-3 minutes or until smooth.
  11. Roll the dough into a loaf shape and place into prepared tin.
