100g raisins
50g sultanas
50g chopped mixed peel
750ml flour 60ml castor sugar 10ml salt
10g sachet of instant yeast grated rind of
1 lemon grated rind of 1 orange
1 egg yolk
1 egg
15ml honey 10ml vanilla extract 80g butter, softened 250ml warm milk
Put the raisins and sultanas in a bowl. Pour boiling water over them to plump them up. Set aside for 10 minutes.
Dry the raisins with a paper towel. Combine with the mixed peel and set aside.
Put the flour, sugar, salt, yeast and rinds into the bowl of a mixer. Combine the yolk, egg, honey and vanilla and mix well. Add to the flour with the butter and enough milk to make a dough that is soft, but not sticky.
Add the fruit mixture and knead until evenly distributed.
Put the dough into an oiled plastic bag and set aside in a warm place to rise until doubled in size.
Remove from the plastic and knead lightly. Shape into a ball and drop the dough into a well-greased, deep 18cm cake pan. Cover and set aside until the dough has risen to the top of the pan. Using a sharp knife, cut a cross in the top of the dough.
Brush with egg wash and bake at 170°C for 45 to 50 minutes until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the loaf comes out clean.
Makes 1 large or 8 small panettones
◆ Smaller panettones can be baked in mega muffin pans for about 30 minutes.
