Preparation

  1. Reserve 10 g of sugar for finishing. Dispense the yeast in water at 30 °C. Add flour, remaining 80 g of sugar, oil, orange blossom, zest and salt. Knead for 10 minutes to obtain a soft paste.
  2. Cover and allow to double in volume, about 1 h 30 in a temperate room.
  3. Degas and divide into three portions. Spread each on 1 cm approximately in oval of 22 x 14 cm. Form three wide bumps on the top edge by gently pinching the dough, without adding any lumps. Cut three large oblique lines in the center and open them 1 cm wide so that they remain visible after lifting.
  4. Let stand for 45 minutes. Spread the reserved 10 g of sugar over the three clouds. Cook the baking tray separately for 18 to 22 minutes at 180 °C, to a blonde surface and a cooked crumb.
  5. Cool on a wire rack. Present the three clouds separately, completely flat, and share by hand.

Preserve and Serve

2 days packed at cool room temperature.

Baking tips for this recipe

  • Weigh the yeast and uses the type indicated in the recipe: yeast and yeast are not interchangeable.
  • Observe the increase in volume during shoots. A cool room can lengthen the times indicated.
  • Respect the dimensions of the mold and the amount of dough: a brioche too tight or too full does not cook in the same way.

Substitutions and variations

To vary a zest, choose another citrus fruit washed and intended for this use, keeping the same amount. Does not automatically replace juice, whose acidity can change the preparation.
