  • ... and combine with a whisk until dissolved completely.
  • Tip the flour T55 in the stand mixer recipient.
  • Add the salt...
  • ... and combine with the whisk to incorporate the salt.
  • Add the water and yeast mixture...
  • ... and mix at medium speed with the dough hook for 3 minutes.
  • Gather the flour in the centre during the kneading process.
  • 3 minutes later, the consistency should be thick and smooth.
  • The dough starter is now ready.
  • Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and gather the dough in the centre...
  • ... into a homogeneous ball.
  • Cover the surface with cling film...
  • ... to avoid the formation of a crust on the surface. Leave to rise for 3 hours in a warm place (about 25°C).
  • After 3 hours, the dough should have risen significantly.
  • Remove the cling film. The dough will stick to the film. This is completely normal.
  • Scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula and gather the dough starter in the centre of the bowl. Knock the dough back with the spatula...
  • ... and cover the surface again with cling film.
  • Store in the fridge overnight.
  • For the candied fruits (make the day before): Organise the necessary ingredients.
  • Place the candied fruits in a mixing bowl and add the rum.
  • Using a Microplane Classic grater, zest the lemon...
  • ... and the orange over the bowl.
  • The result should be as shown in the photo.
  • Combine carefully with a spatula.
  • Stretch some cling film over the bowl...
  • ... and refrigerate overnight.

  • ... castor sugar...
  • ... and vanilla powder (you can use a fresh vanilla pod if you wish).
  • Combine the ingredients with the dough hook until homogeneous.
  • Add the fresh baker's yeast...
  • ... the egg yolks...
  • .. the whole milk...
  • ... and knead for about 3 minutes at medium speed...
  • ... until the dough is smooth and homogeneous.
  • Add the dough starter...
  • ... and knead again for 5 minutes at medium speed.
  • Stop the beater and scrape the sides of the bowl during the kneading process.
  • Increase the speed a little and knead for about 2 minutes.
  • Scrape the bowl regularly and mix until the dough comes away from the sides of the bowl.
  • Add the soft butter and mix at low speed for 10 minutes...
  • ... until the butter is completely incorporated.
  • The panettone dough should be smooth and homogeneous.
  • Add the macerated candied fruits...
  • ... and combine until homogeneous.
  • This is what the cake result should look like.
  • Transfer the dough into a food prep tray...
  • ... and cover the surface with cling film.
  • Leave to rise at room temperature for 3 hours.
  • Transfer the panettone dough on a floured surface. Use a dough scraper.
  • Knock the dough back with your hand...
  • ... and shape the dough into a ball.
  • The result should be as shown in the photo.
  • Divide the dough ball into 3 equal portions...
  • ... using a digital scale.
  • Shape each portion into a ball.
  • Place each dough ball into a panettone paper mould or a panettone springform cake tin. Leave the panettones to rise for 2 hours in a warm place (about 25°C), ideally in a proofing chamber. The dough should double in volume.
  • For the icing: Organise all the necessary ingredients.
  • Place the whole raw almonds in a processor bowl.
  • Add the icing sugar...
  • ... and grind into a fine powder.
  • Add the flour...
  • ... and mix again.
  • Add the oil, egg whites and a few drops of sweet almond flavouring.
  • Mix again...
  • ... until you get a soft paste consistency.
  • Take the panettones out of the proofing chamber...
  • ... and pipe a layer of almond icing on the surface of each panettone. Use a piping bag and cut the tip with scissors to create a small hole. Pipe the icing into a spiral, starting in the centre.
  • Sprinkle the icing with whole raw almonds, crushed coarsely with a knife beforehand.
  • Sprinkle with pearl sugar...
  • ... and icing sugar.
  • Bake in a fan-assisted oven preheated at 180°C (gas 4) for about 30 minutes.
  • The dough should have risen and should now reach the rim of the mould.
  • Remove from the oven and leave to cool at room temperature.
  • With panettone paper moulds: while the panettone is still warm, insert two wooden picks across the base.
  • Flip the panettone carefully...
  • ... and hang it upside down on top of two bowls. This operation is essential to fix the fats inside the dough so the panettone doesn't collapse. Leave to cool upside down overnight.
  • With a panettone springform pan: open the clip and carefully remove the sides of the mould.
  • This is what the result should be like. Don't hang this one to cool. Panettone will keep well for a few days in an airtight plastic bag. Enjoy this delicious treat!

Number Of Ingredients 23

For biga
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
To start dough
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
2 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/3 cups flour
To finish dough
3 1/2 cups flour
9 large egg yolks
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon milk
2 tablespoons honey
3/4 cup sugar
20 tablespoons (2 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup mixed candied fruit (such as glacéed cherries and citron, orange, or lemon peel), diced
1 cup golden raisins
*Available at baking supply stores and www.sugarcraft.com.
Special Equipment
2 (8-inch) or 8 (3 1/2-inch) paper panettone molds*

Steps:

  • Make biga:
  • In bowl of standing mixer fitted with dough hook, combine 1/3 cup warm water (105°F to 115°F) and sugar. Stir in yeast. Let stand until yeast dissolves, about 5 minutes. Add flour and mix at low speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let rise in warm, draft-free place until tripled in volume, about 3 hours. (Can be made 5 days ahead. Stir down starter, cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before using.)
  • Start dough:
  • In small bowl, stir together 1/4 cup warm water (105°F to 115°F) and yeast. Let stand until yeast dissolves, about 5 minutes. Attach bowl containing biga to standing mixer fitted with dough hook, pour in yeast mixture, and mix at low speed until combined, about 2 minutes. Add egg yolks, sugar, and flour and mix at medium speed until shiny and smooth, about 5 minutes. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let rise in warm, draft-free place until tripled in volume, about 3 hours.
  • Finish dough and bake bread:
  • Attach bowl containing dough to standing mixer fitted with dough hook and add flour, egg yolks, milk, honey, 1/4 cup sugar, and 10 tablespoons butter. Mix at medium speed until blended, about 3 minutes, then add salt, vanilla, and remaining sugar. Mix at medium speed until well blended, about 5 minutes more.
  • With mixer running, add remaining 10 tablespoons butter, 1 tablespoon at time. (Dough will become smooth and shiny and will pull away from sides of bowl.) Add candied fruit and raisins and mix until blended, about 1 minute. Form dough into ball and transfer to large bowl. Cover with clean kitchen towel and let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in volume, about 3 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter 2 (8-inch) or 8 (3 1/2-inch) paper panettone molds. Punch down dough, then turn out onto work surface. Divide dough into 2 pieces and form each into ball. (If using small molds, divide dough into 8 small balls.) Place 1 ball in each mold. Cover with clean kitchen towel and let rise in warm, draft-free place until dough has risen past the rim and springs back when poked, about 1 hour.
  • Bake until golden brown, about 45 to 50 minutes. To cool, stick 2 skewers through base of each mold and suspend bread upside down by resting skewers on 2 containers taller than bread. (This helps keep bread from deflating during cooling.)
  • When loaves are cool, wrap well in plastic wrap, then in parchment or tissue paper. Store at room temperature.

PANETTONE



Panettone image

Prove your baking skills this Christmas with a fluffy, lighter-than-air classic Italian sweetbread, packed with festive flavours and candied fruit

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert, Treat

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 tbsp warm milk
1 x 7g sachet fast-action dried yeast
150g caster sugar
250g butter, softened
5 medium eggs, lightly beaten
2 tsp vanilla extract
grated zest of 1 lemon
grated zest of 1 orange
550g strong white bread flour, plus extra for dusting
80g raisins
80g sultanas
3 tbsp dark rum
100g good-quality candied lemon and orange peel, finely chopped
30g whole blanched almonds, roughly chopped
1 tbsp caster sugar
1 tbsp egg white
1 tbsp icing sugar

Steps:

  • Grease a panettone tin (see Tip) or a 20cm deep cake tin, or use a panettone case.
  • Place the warm milk in a bowl and add the yeast and 1 tsp of sugar and leave for a few minutes.
  • Put the remaining sugar in a large bowl and beat together with the butter and vanilla extract until really light, creamy and pale.
  • Stir in the lemon and orange zest. Add the eggs a little at a time until all are well incorporated. Spoon in a tablespoon of the flour if the mixture starts to curdle and beat this in with the eggs.
  • Place the flour in a large bowl and mix with a good pinch of salt and make a well in the centre. Add the yeast mixture then the butter and egg mixture, folding in with a large spoon to make a soft dough. Knead for 5 mins in the bowl until it all starts to come together. It will be a pretty sticky dough at this stage.
  • Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and knead for a further 10 mins, until everything has come together and you have a very soft and stretchy dough. Add a light sprinkling of flour to the surface and your hands as you go to stop the mixture sticking, but try not to add too much. Place in a lightly greased bowl and cover. Place in the fridge overnight to prove.
  • Place the raisins and sultanas in a small saucepan with the rum and heat gently for 5 - 7 mins until the fruit has absorbed the liquid and is plump and juicy. Set aside to cool.
  • When the dough is risen, tip it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for another 5 mins. Gradually knead in the soaked raisins, sultanas and chopped candied peel. Shape the dough into a ball and pop into the prepared tin. If using a 20cm cake tin, wrap a layer of baking parchment around the outside of the tin, to come up about 5cm above the rim, and secure the paper with string. This will help contain the dough as it rises. Cover lightly with cling film and leave to rise for 3-4 hours depending on your room temperature, until it has doubled in size.
  • Preheat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Adjust the oven shelf to the right height. Mix together the almonds, caster sugar and egg white for the topping and gently brush over the top of the panettone. Place in the oven and bake for 40 - 50 mins until golden and risen and a skewer comes out clean when inserted into the middle of the cake. Leave to cool in the tin for 10 mins before turning out onto a wire rack. Leave to cool completely before dusting lightly with icing sugar and cutting into wedges to serve.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start, measure and assemble all of the ingredients and equipment you will need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any mishaps.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the panettone will be. Look for fresh, ripe candied fruit and high-quality flour, butter, and eggs.
  • Be patient with the dough: Panettone dough needs time to rise and develop flavor. Don't rush the process or the panettone will not turn out as well.
  • Proof the dough properly: The dough should be proofed in a warm, humid place until it has doubled in size. This will help the panettone rise evenly and prevent it from becoming dense.
  • Bake the panettone at a high temperature: This will help the panettone rise quickly and develop a golden brown crust.
  • Cool the panettone upside down: This will help the panettone retain its shape and prevent it from sinking.

Conclusion:

Panettone is a delicious and festive bread that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a bit of a project to make, but it is definitely worth the effort. With a little patience and care, you can make a panettone that is sure to impress your family and friends.
