Brioche with strawberries and crumble is a cake that always turns out great and which, despite its simplicity, is extremely tasty. I made this brioche with strawberries, because the season for them had just started, but of course out of season they can be replaced by other fruits. Bilberries, blueberries, rhubarb, apples, cherries and many other fruits fit perfectly in the dough of brioche. This brioche with strawberries and crumble can be served for breakfast, dessert or dinner. It will go perfectly with milk, cocoa or coffee.
I start the preparation of the strawberry brioche with making yeast dough. Apart from flour, sugar, eggs and butter, I also add yoghurt and yeast to it. I usually make yeast dough with milk, but I often replace it with yoghurt, kefir or buttermilk. This was also the case this time.
Sometimes, I rub the eggs with sugar first, and then add the remaining ingredients, but this times I mixed everything at once. After mixing, I knead the dough for a long time, about 8 minutes. Once the dough has risen, I placed it in a baking tin and added the strawberries. I sprinkled the dough with crumble and after it leavened, I baked it for about an hour. I let the brioche cool down very well before slicing it. If you have fresh fruits at home, I recommend the following recipe for brioche with strawberries and crumble.

How to make brioche.
Pour the yoghurt into a bowl, warm it up slightly, then add the yeast, stir and set it aside for 10 minutes.
Sift the flour into a bowl, add icing sugar, vanilla, eggs, soft butter and slightly leavened yeast. Mix the ingredients and knead for 8 minutes – I did it with a food processor. Cover the bowl with a kitchen cloth and leave the dough to rise in a warm place for about 1 hour.
Transfer the dough to the kitchen counter, slightly degas it, then spread it evenly in the baking tin. Wash and dry the strawberries, cut each in half or into quarters, depending on their size. Next, press each piece of strawberry into the yeast dough. Sprinkle the crumble on top, cover with a kitchen cloth and leave it to rise for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and when it is hot, put the tin with dough in. Bake the brioche for 55 minutes to 1 hour.
Good to know when making brioche with strawberries and crumble.
All the ingredients used to prepare the yeast dough should be at room temperature.
I used a round-shaped baking tin with a diameter of 25 centimetres, which I lined with baking paper. The brioche can be prepared in a larger, for example, rectangular baking dish, in which case the baking time should be slightly shortened.
