Couronne des rois briochée à la fleur d'oranger

L’année dernière, je vous proposais la galette des rois à la crème d’amande mais cette année comme je n’avais pas envie de galette, j’ai fais, avec l’aide de Monsieur, une brioche au bon goût de fleur d’oranger. Pour accompagner tout ça, du bon sucre casson qui croque sous la dent et des fruits confits. Un régal cette petite brioche des rois, You can not find ?!

For the brioche, put the flour in a bowl, make a well and add the yeast to the center. Work the dough between your fingers and incorporate the eggs,Orange blossom, sugar and salt. Knead the dough and stretch it, then add the butter. Knead the dough until it comes away from the bowl (you can transfer it to the worktop for more convenience).

Let the dough rise covered under a tea towel for 2 hours.

Degas the dough with the point and form a crown. Do not forget to put the bean inside at that time !

Arrange the dough on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper and let swell between 4 hour and night.
