Panettone, “pane di tono” (luxury bread in Milanese dialect) is a classic and much loved world wide, Italian cake-like bread made with fresh eggs, butter, wheat flour, yeast, sugar and candied orange and lemon peel. Historically, it originates from the Milanese region in Italy and dates back to the 1400’s! Typically served during the Christmas season as a symbol of good fortune for the coming New Year. Today, you can find many flavoured versions including chocolate, coffee and a variety of fruits. It is also available in store by early spring in time for Easter celebration. This is my new Italian version of the traditional English Bread and Butter Pudding that I use to make using plain bread and raisins. I hope this becomes your new favourite too…xo
Oh wow it looks so delicious! ❤
