These easy orange brioche rolls are well worth the wait. The recipe is very straightforward and convenient if you use a stand mixer (like I did with my hot cross buns)<\/a> \u2013 but you do need to give the dough time to chill. I\u2019d highly recommend going with the stand mixer. You can<\/em> hand-knead brioche rolls, but it will take a lot of time, effort, and patience.<\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n\n

Brioche Rolls Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Ingredients<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Flour:<\/strong> I find all-purpose flour to be the best bet for a fluffy brioche recipe. It makes the rolls perfectly light. You can also use bread flour. Its high protein content, the bread will be chewier and fluffy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Milk <\/strong>adds moisture and richness. Full fat is best for extra soft and tender sweet rolls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eggs<\/strong> help create structure and give the dough that classic soft, rich texture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yeast<\/strong>: I used active dry yeast, but instant will work well too. Make sure it's fresh and not expired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The butter<\/strong> needs to be slightly softened butter. I used salted, but unsalted butter works too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Orange Marmalade<\/strong> is the hidden star ingredient of the sweet brioche recipe. A thick-cut marmalade adds a bright, citrusy sweetness and a little zesty flavor in every bite. I think marmalades work beautifully well in pastries of all kinds. They bring a certain air of sophistication to the said confection without making it overly sweet but so flavorful. Use store-bought or homemade orange marmalade<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Filling:<\/strong> I love orange marmalade and love to slather it on sweet buns<\/a>, salted butter rolls<\/a>, sandwich bread<\/a>, and croissants. That said, any jam or filling works in this orange brioche recipe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
