Candied citrus fruits to taste
120 g Nutella® (10 g/portion)
Salt

METHOD
STEP 1On the work surface, make a pile of the 00 flour, in the middle add the brewer's yeast which you previously crumbled and dissolved in water. Knead together to create a homogenous, smooth mixture.
STEP 2Put it aside to rise for 40 minutes, covered with a tea towel. Afterwards, mix again adding the Manitoba flour, 5 egg yolks, the butter (after it has been melted and then allowed to cool), sugar, milk, candied citrus fruits and a pinch of salt. Knead the dough to homogenise everything, then cover it with a tea towel and let it rise for another 2 hours.
STEP 3After the necessary time has passed, briefly knead the dough once again on the floured work surface. If you intend to use it for one single brioche, put it in a buttered and floured mould approximately 10 cm deep and 18 cm in diameter. Brush with some milk and bake in a pre-heated oven at 180°C for 10 minutes and then at 160°C for another 20 minutes. Cut the brioche into slices and garnish with Nutella® and candied citrus fruits.
