Things to Make With Panettone

Last year I was given six Panettone's and my family don't eat them, only I do.
I will never re- gift them .

Then last year I thought what can I use these for, or should I say how can I disguise them so my family will eat them. Below is a few recipes I have made using Panettone.

If you have any other recipes using Panettone please add to this post

Panettone French Toast

INGREDIENTS​

  • 200g fresh ricotta
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 8 slices panettone
  • 1/3 cup (110g) jam
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup (125ml) thickened cream
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons icing sugar

METHOD​

  • 1.
    Combine the ricotta, vanilla, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon, in a bowl. Spread 4 slices panettone with the ricotta mixture and spread the other 4 slices with jam. Sandwich the slices together.
  • 2.
    Meanwhile, whisk the eggs and cream together. Soak panettone sandwiches in the egg mixture for a few seconds each side so they can absorb the batter.
  • 3.
    Melt half the butter in a large frypan over medium heat until bubbling. In batches, cook panettone for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Remove and keep warm while you cook the remaining French toast.

    In a small bowl, mix together the remaining cinnamon and icing sugar. Dust the French toast with cinnamon sugar, then serve immediately.

serves 4

INGREDIENTS​

  • 3 eggs
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) thin cream
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) milk
  • 2 tablespoons caster sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 x 1.5cm-thick rounds of panettone* (cut across horizontally), quartered

METHOD​

  • 1.
    In a wide, shallow bowl, beat eggs, cream, milk, sugar and vanilla. Add the panettone, turn to coat and leave to soak for 10 minutes, pressing down from time to time to ensure it soaks up the batter.

    Meanwhile, place half the berries in a blender with icing sugar and 1 tablespoon water. Blend until smooth. Combine with remaining berries and set aside.

  • 3.
    Heat half the butter in a non-stick frypan over medium heat. Drain excess egg mixture from half the panettone slices and cook for 1-2 minutes each side until golden. Keep warm while you repeat with remaining butter and panettone.

  • 4.
    To serve, place two slices on each plate, dust with icing sugar, and top with berry compote and a dollop of cream.

Berry Chocolate Panettone Triffle

Serves: dinner party (8-10
Recipe by myfoodbook

Screenshot_20231214_180431_Gallery.jpg

Ingredients:
450g panettone, crust trimmed and cut into 3cm cubes
100ml Tia Maria or similar liqueur (See below for substitute )
300g frozen Blueberries
500g frozen Raspberries
250g cream cheese, at room temperature
2 cups double thick vanilla custard
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon icing sugar
Chocolate curls or coarsely grated dark chocolate, to serve optional

Method:
  1. Place panettone into a medium bowl. Drizzle with liqueur, stir to combine and stand for 10 minutes. Place frozen berries in another bowl. Sprinkle with 1 tbs icing sugar and stir until well mixed. Set aside
  2. Meanwhile, place cream cheese in a medium bowl. Using electric hand beaters, beat until smooth. Add custard and 1/3 cup icing sugar and beat for 4-5 minutes on high until smooth
  3. To assemble trifle, arrange half the soaked panettone into the base of a 10 to 12-cup trifle bowl or dish Spoon over half the custard mixture. Sprinkle with half the berries. Repeat layering finishing with berries.
  4. Cover with plastic and refrigerate for 4-5 hours
  5. To serve, top trifle with chocolate curls or grated dark chocolate and serve
Tips & Hints:

If you dont have liqueur then substitute it with orange or apple juice
  • Panettone is Italian spiced yeast bread containing sultanas and candied peel. Sold in dome-shaped boxes, it's available in supermarkets. Use light cream cheese, reduced fat custard and Sponge finger Savoiardi biscuits in place of panettone for a lighter alternative.
  • If you don't have a trifle bowl, you can use a salad bowl, or even a glass flower vase
  • The trifle can be made the day before and chilled overnight, but the longer it's stored, the more the berries 'seep' their natural rosy-pink juices.
