Ingredients
- 4 cups cake flour
- 1 Tbsp vital wheat gluten
- 1 Tbsp instant dry yeast
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ¼ cup organic sugar
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup vegan butter
For The Glaze
- 1 tsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp water
- ½ tsp vegan butter
Instructions
- Mix the flour, vital wheat gluten, yeast, baking soda, and sugar in a large bowl. Pour in the warm water and melted vegan butter. Stir together well, adding extra spoonfuls of flour if needed, until a thick dough is formed.
- Knead dough for 10 minutes or process in a food processor about 2-3 minutes, until dough pulls away easily from the side. Sprinkle in extra flour as needed.
- Cut dough into 3 or more equal parts and pull into strips. Loosely roll the strips up and place in a greased loaf pan or 9x9" baking dish. Cover and let rise until doubled in size.
- Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 20 minutes at 350° Fahrenheit or until crust is golden and loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
- Take out the brioche and brush with the glaze. Let bake another 5 minutes or until crust is deep brown. Brush on an additional coating of glaze after removing from the oven.
- Let the vegan brioche cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then remove. Try not to eat it all at once!
