Learn the perfect panettone recipe for delicious holidays

From the Italian panetto or small cake panettone is a large fruity enriched sweet bread that is typically served at Christmas throughout Italy and in Italian communities around the world. Originally from Milan it is a large domed cake that is leavened with yeast. It has a light airy texture but a rich buttery flavor and is not very sweet.

Filled with dried fruit and candied peel spongy panettone requires care and attention but making it isn’t as difficult as it seems as our simple recipe shows. And while you can buy ready-made panettone in boxes nothing compares to freshly made panettone. Sliced or hand-pulled alone or with buttercream or fruit preserves don’t miss this delicious dessert which is also great for brunches coffee and tea moments.
