Vegan brioche bread

Until recently, I had only ever known the French bread, brioche, as a compulsory breakfast component on our holidays in the South of France. However, this light and airy bread is also easy to make yourself and you can even make a vegan version. It tastes best with homemade jam or chocolate & hazelnut spread. Bon appétit!
