Breakfast Brioche

Recently we've had quite a few companies wanting to build their teams over breakfast! We've hosted a number of Masterchef Breakfast Challenges, and it's proving to be a great start to the day.

Our wonderful Operations Manager (and professional chef) Ange gives some teams a head start with breakfast brioche dough, which can be filled with savoury or sweet options. Either way, they're delicious! Ours were made with berries and dark chocolate, or sundried tomatoes, feta and spinach.

Our only hint is to be careful not to handle to dough too much - over working makes for heavy buns!
