Pannetone options?

Joyce said:

We've been given a large pannetone which is going to take ages to eat as it is. Are there any
recipes that it can be used in?

I never know whether it is treated as a cake or a bread.

Toast it for breakfast. I recently saw a recipe using pannetone in bread pudding. It sounded good,
but I'll be darned if I can remember where I saw it.

I never tried one before I bought one at Safeway the other day. I was kind of disappointed at the
texture. The flavor is fine, though.

I sprinkled dark rum on it. Better.

I may try rum and maple syrup next.

Bread pudding was what came to mind or me. Last night I had a bread pudding made with croissants,
and it was decadent. You should be able to use a standard recipe and substitute pannetone for the
bread, and perhaps reduce or eliminate the raisins, or use another fruit like golden raisins that is
more compatible with the fruit in the pannetone.

Great idea. You could also use it in a trifle. French toast might even work.

I had visions on reading this thread of some type of xmas morning casserole, assembled the night
before with pannetone and French toast batter- xmas morning just bake and eat/graze at your leisure.
With some real maple syrup on the side. Oh and a coffee with Bailey's in it of course..that is OUR
xmas morning tradition (makes staying calm around psycho kids easier....LOL)

It will freeze fine for a few weeks, well-wrapped. But you can use it in bread pudding or trifle.

1. toasted with butter or homemade jams
2. dipped in cafe au lait (or cappucino)-- just enough to moisten in slightly
3. excellent in bread pudding -- use it when challah or croissants are listed in the recipe. readah

So I did, tonight, and wow.

This is the way to go.

Dark rum and Grade-B syrup.

Ours is imported from Italy. The brand name is Alemagna.

If you already cut the panettone, well all those options: pudding, dipping, are great. If you have a
whole panettone there are sevaral recipes you want to try. An excellent one comes to my mind:

Carve the panettone from the bottom. Reserve a slice to close it afterward. Soak the inside with
Cointreau. Mix the crumbs with zabaglione cream. Put the mix back into the cavity. Place the slice
back to close the opening. Pour on top a chocolate ganache. Superyummy!

Pannetone makes a really fine tasting bread pudding. Be sure to butter the pieces as you build
the pudding.
