Pain au lait

Having ventured into croissants, brioche and enriched breads, I thought it was time to make some pain au lait (or milk bread). This isn't as rich as brioche, but it has its place, mostly for breakfast or with tea. I found it on an awesome French web site. Though I like to sink my teeth into crunchier loaves with multigrains, I find this a perfect bread to spread with jam, nutella or even some mild cheeses. It's great for molding or studding with raisins, or maybe a good vehicle for making schnecken or sticky buns, which I'll have to try soon!

    The bread looks fab, but alas, Nutella has decided to use artificial stuff in their product now, so I no longer buy it. Sad, since I’ve been eating it since childhood.
