Apricot diabolical spiral brioche

I opened a French version of my blog few weeks ago. I am translating and translating. In my mother tongue so that’s not so difficult; but it’s taking me a lot of time :).

The opening of the French version means finding new ways and websites to advertise my blog in French. I discovered hellocoton.fr. This is an outstanding community. I love finding new recipes there and I discover thousand blogs so interesting.

I just registered to the newsletter of Paprikas, a great French blog and this morning I received an email. A challenge! I never had the chance to participate to a cooking challenge neither in English nor in French. But this strange brioche was seriously tempting me.

I looked around in my kitchen and I had almost everything: flour, sugar, fresh yeast, milk, egg and salt. Sadly I was missing butter and vanilla flavoured sugar. I could have made this recipe without vanilla flavoured sugar; but without butter wasn’t really an option. Half an hour and one grocery store after. I am standing right in the middle of my kitchen with my computer ready to bake this diabolical spiral brioche.

I chose to fill my brioche with an apricot jam. I made this marmalade last year; but you can also buy one.
