Notes

Try using a summer honey for a stronger honey taste. If you prefer a more subtle honey use a runny kind like akasie. You can use hot water to dissolve the honey easier, just make sure that the mix is not too hot when you add the yeast this may kill it. The temperature should not be above body temperature when adding the yeast.
If you prefer a lighter colored brioche you can take it out of the oven before the 16 minutes has passed at 160 degrees. let us know how you like yours!
