Flaky Pull Apart Cinnamon Peach Brioche Bread.

Flaky Pull Apart Cinnamon Peach Brioche Bread. Extra flaky, light, buttery, and eggy brioche bread, swirled with sweet peaches and cinnamon sugar. Nothing beats the deliciousness of this bread. It’s cozy, summery, and the perfect weekend treat!

Hey, hey, happy Friday! I really could not think of a better recipe to welcome in the weekend than this peach pull apart brioche bread. It’s a mix of summer and comfort and I LOVE it so much. I know I mentioned this yesterday, but I’m definitely moving in towards the cozier recipes with our slightly shorter days and cooler temperatures.

Very much looking forward what’s to come, but since it is still summer, I’m mixing summer foods with slightly cozier baking. Perfect for the weekend, right?

It’s hard to believe that it’s mid August already, but the date doesn’t lie, and mid August means it’s peak peach season all over the US. Here in Summit County, Colorado most of our peaches come from Palisades, CO. We also get peaches from Georgia, and California. Each are delicious in their own unique ways. I must admit, I went a little overboard with the peach recipes this week and have a few coming your way next week…and the next. Today’s peach recipe is sweet, but the following recipes are savory.

Be very excited about each, because they are all so good!

If you follow along on Instagram, you know I did a lot of cooking this week. I’m headed to LA on Monday for work, so that meant that this week was all about testing new recipes. This peach brioche bread was one of the recipes I worked on.

It. Is. My. FAVORITE.

Originally, I planned on sharing this later in the month, but it’s so delicious that I couldn’t wait and decided to share it now. It would have been mean of me not to. Peach season is short-lived, so I figure sharing sooner was really best.

That said let’s jump right into the details.

For starters, this is not one of my super simple recipes, but it’s also not a hard recipe. It’s actually pretty easy, but you need to allow time for the dough to rise, at least a few hours, it’s essential.

If you’ve never made a brioche dough, it’s a simple mix up of milk, yeast, eggs, flour, and butter. It’s probably my favorite kind of dough to work with, it’s also just incredibly good. Like so, so, so, so good.

This brioche dough however is not exactly typical. It has all the same ingredients, but with a smidge more butter than usual and the addition of cinnamon and peaches. Yessss!

When I set out to make this brioche bread, I knew I wanted it be soft on the inside, but incredibly flaky as well. I was going for a croissant feel and the only way I know how to achieve that kind of flaky layer is with butter. The layers of cold butter are what give this bread it’s “extra flaky” feel. That extra layer of butter ripples through the rolls creating flakey, doughy, swirly layers. It’s what makes this pull-apart brioche better than any other.

Because let’s be real, who does not love buttery, doughy, cinnamon and peach filled layers?!

They are the best. It’s soft brioche meets flaky croissant. I don’t think there could be a better combo. Trust me here.

That’s the dough. Now onto the filling.

It’s simple.

Cinnamon sugar and fresh peaches.

Rolled up like a cinnamon roll and cut into swirly buns. The BEST. And so pretty. LOVE.

And guys, that’s it. No frosting or glaze because I really wanted the peaches to shine and not be overpowered (or over sugared?) with a glaze. The peaches are the star and their flavor and sweetness really shine through.

This is best served up on a weekend morning, warm outta the oven with hot coffee and a smear of butter (salted, because it’s my favorite). So much perfection. And also? The leftovers are kind of delicious as an afternoon snack or midnight treat, warm or cold. Maybe with more coffee or tea?

Mouth is watering.

Have I sold you yet? Are you making this over the weekend? Maybe peach picking tomorrow, and then Peach Brioche for Sunday morning? Yes. Do That.
