Caffeine Free Buttery Soft Brioche Bread

Rich, pillowy, and impossibly tender, this brioche is the kind of bread that makes you want to clear your whole Saturday just to bake it. The magic comes from a generous amount of softened butter worked slowly into the dough — each piece incorporated one at a time until the whole thing turns glossy and smooth. An overnight cold rest in the refrigerator does double duty, firming up the butter for easier shaping and coaxing out a deeper, more complex flavor without any added effort on your part. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of caffeine, so there's nothing to swap, check, or second-guess — just flour, eggs, butter, milk, yeast, and a little sugar doing exactly what they're supposed to do. The finished loaf bakes to a deep chestnut brown with a soft, feathery crumb that pulls apart in gorgeous, buttery ribbons. It's stunning sliced thick for French toast, layered into a sandwich, or honestly just eaten warm with a little extra butter melting into every fold.
