Choosing a flour for brioche and enriched doughs

Butter, eggs and sugar weigh a dough down, so enriched doughs need a Very strong flour, usually W 350 and up. That strength lets brioche, sweet rolls and holiday breads rise tall and stay soft.

Manitoba-type flours such as Caputo Manitoba Oro and Mulino Marino Furia are the usual choice. The same flours work for panettone, pandoro and colomba, and for long-fermented doughs.

Add the butter gradually and keep the dough cool so it stays smooth. For the softest crumb, let the dough rest overnight in the fridge before shaping; cold dough is also much easier to handle.

Common questions

What flour is best for brioche?

A very strong flour, around W 350 or more, such as a Manitoba-type Italian flour. It supports the butter and eggs for a tall, soft crumb.

Can I use the same flour for panettone?

Yes. Many of these flours are also panettone flours. See the Panettone page for the strongest options.

Why is my brioche dense?

Often the flour is too weak for the amount of butter and sugar, or the butter went in too quickly. A stronger flour and a cool dough help.
