Recipe preparation steps
-
1
Prepare the
brioche dough
-
2
At the point where the dough is in the baking dish and has doubled in volume, add three-fourths of the pralines, broken into 3 or 4 pieces, and then knead the dough to remove any air.
-
3
Mould the dough by hand into 2 or 3 balls, and place on a lightly-buttered and floured baking pan. Leave enough space for the dough to double in size.
-
4
Cover the dough with a cloth and leave to double in volume (about 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the ambient temperature).
-
5
Chop up the last one-fourth of pralines while the dough is raising. Pre-heat the oven to 450°F.
-
6
When the dough has doubled in volume, paint the surfaces several times with a well-beaten egg, and sprinkle on the chopped pralines. Put the dough into the pre-heated oven.
-
7
When the dough has browned, lower the oven temperature to 350°F
-
8
When the brioches are done, (testing in the classic way with a knife blade for sticking dough), switch off and open the oven, leaving the brioches to cool slowly. The brioches can be saved for several days, and re-heated in the oven for serving.
