Introduction
This recipe is much like the Palmiers from Dessert Person in that 80% of the work is making the dough – except this time it’s brioche instead of puff pastry. Brioche is a great buttery dough that can be used for anything where butter will shine (such as French toast and a variety of desserts). The twists themselves can be topped with a variety of different sugar blends – listed ones include coriander sugar, cinnamon, etc.

Making The Twists (And A Loaf)




Tip 1: Don’t worry if your twists don’t grow significantly in size.
Tip 2: Feel free to try some other shapes. You should have plenty of dough if you follow the recipe. Alternatively, only use half of the recipe for twists and make a loaf with the other half.
