STEVE'S PANETTONE FOR BREAD MACHINE



Steve's Panettone for Bread Machine image

This is an excellent Panettone made easier by using your bread machine.It will taste much better if you can find the separate containers of candied peel than if you use the mixed peel made for fruit cake. The oils in mixed peel seems to get old quickly and give a bit of a biter less fresh taste. Here in NY at holiday time the individual candied peel under the Paradise brand are easy to find in most supermarkets.

Time 4h20m

Yield 1 loaf, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup warm water
6 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour or 3 cups bread flour
1 (1/4 ounce) package fleishmans yeast
1/2 cup candied fruit (See **)
1/3 cup chopped almonds
1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Steps:

  • ** I prefer to mix my own from separate containers of candied cherries, citron, lemon and orange peel rather than use the premixed peel sold for friut cake as the individual fruit flavors remain more distinct this way.
  • Add ingredients in bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer select white bread or sweet bread and push start; dough will look wet but that is normal for this bread, don't be tempted to add more flour.
  • Note: I have found that candied fruit and nuts are rather resilient and don't break up easily.
  • So I find little difference if the fruit and nuts are added at the beginning instead of waiting for the additives beep of the machine.
  • You can wait if you wish but I tend in this recipe to throw it in with the rest of the ingredients.
  • I like my bread less dense so the bread so that the flavor of the bread comes through and I can spread some butter on it.
  • If you prefer a more dense fruity bread you can increase the fruit to a full cup.

PANETTONE (BREAD MACHINE)



Panettone (Bread Machine) image

(This recipe is from "The best bread machine cookbook ever") This Christmas bread from Milan is now available around the world, packed in domed boxes by huge Italian bakeries. The panettone from your own bread machine, though, will be softer, fruitier, and more buttery. Cut into wedges or thick slices for Christmas morning, or slice thinnier for a New Year's Day dessert buffet. Panettone can be turned into fine French toast that is sweet enough to forgo maple syrup.

Tips:

  • For a traditional Italian Panettone, use "mother yeast" or "lievito madre". If you don't have it, use active dry yeast.
  • Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature. This will help the yeast activate and rise properly.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the bread tough.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place. The ideal temperature is between 75-85°F (24-29°C).
  • If you don't have a bread machine, you can knead the dough by hand or use a stand mixer.
  • If you don't have a panettone pan, you can use a bundt pan or even a regular loaf pan.
  • Brush the top of the bread with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar before baking. This will give it a nice golden crust.
  • Serve the Panettone warm or at room temperature. It can be enjoyed on its own or with your favorite toppings, such as butter, jam, or Nutella.
