Directions
- 1
Add eggs, sugar, warm water, melted butter, panettone flavoring, and yeast to a blender. Blend for 1–2 minutes until smooth and well combined.
- 2
Pour the mixture into a large bowl. Gradually stir in the sifted flour with a wooden spoon until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
- 3
Fold in the chocolate chips to taste, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
- 4
Divide the dough between panettone molds, filling each halfway. This recipe yields approximately 2 medium panettones (500 g each).
- 5
Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm spot for 30–40 minutes, until the dough doubles in size and nearly reaches the top of the mold.
- 6
Place a small knob of butter on top of each panettone without pressing down — this creates a beautifully golden crust during baking.
- 7
Bake in a preheated oven at 190 °C (375 °F) for 40–50 minutes, until deeply golden on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- 8
Allow to cool slightly before unmolding. Serve warm or cool completely before wrapping as gifts.
💡 Chef's Tip
If the top browns too quickly, tent loosely with aluminum foil halfway through baking. For an extra-fragrant result, swap the panettone flavoring for fresh orange zest and a splash of pure vanilla extract.
