I have a bread maker. I'm never sure if I'm entirely convinced by bread maker bread - but I am convinced by this recipe for brioche, which came with it.
Ingredients:
1 egg, beaten into a measuring jug. I like to use a large one, but it doesn't entirely matter because the next ingredient is
Milk, added to bring the total liquid up to 190 ml. I use semi skimmed and the brioche still seems fairly rich. I have never tried substituting oat or almond milk, but I don't see why it wouldn't work if you want to avoid lactose.
80g melted butter (non dairy substitutes should also work).
1 tsp salt.
30g sugar.
350g strong/ bread flour.
1.5 tsp dried yeast.
Pans, etc:
Predictably, you need a bread maker. This is for a 1lb size machine.
You also need a measuring jug, a scale and a bowl to measure in, and some way of melting the butter (microwave or stove).
Add the ingredients to your bread maker in the order given here.* Scatter in the sugar and flour gently a bit at a time, so that it at least partly floats on the liquid. Make a hole for the yeast in the flour - preferably at the opposite end of the bread maker to the salt and add.
Bake on the sweet bread programme. Slice and serve with the jam or jelly of your choice.
* Caveat: I believe some bread makers say add the wet ingredients last. If yours does, reverse the oder given here.
