Panettone Bread Machine Recipes

Steps:

• Add all ingredients except the raisins in the order suggested by your bread machine manual and process on the basic cycle according to the manufacturer's directions.
• At the beeper (or at the end of the first kneeding in the Panasonic or National), add the raisins.
• For the candied orange zest use 4 medium sized oranges, 1 1/3 cup water and 1 1/3 cup sugar. Remove all the orange-colored skin (zest) from orange, finaly chop or dice the zest.
• In a small saucepan, combine water and sugar. Bring to boil over medium heat, swirling the pan until the sugar dissolves and the liquid is clear.
• Add the zest and boil for 5 minutes. Let the candied zest cool in the syrup and refrigeratein covered jar for up to 3 weeks. Before using , drain the zest, reserving syrup, which is called for in some recipes and is delicious over fruit and ice cream.

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.

Steps:

• Add all ingredients in order giving except the fruit.
• Add fruit in on the "add in" beep on "sweet bread" setting on "light crust".

Steps:

• Empty the Holiday Panettone mix (recipe follows) into a bowl. Heat 1 cup whole milk, 1 stick butter, 1/4 cup honey and 2 tablespoons grated lemon zest to 120 degrees in a saucepan; stir into the mix. Mix in 2 lightly beaten eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; cover and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Butter two 5-by-9-inch loaf pans or two empty 10-ounce coffee cans and line with parchment paper. Add the dough; cover and let rise 1 hour. Bake at 350 degrees until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Cool before slicing.

Steps:

• Sprinkle yeast over milk in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the dough-hook attachment. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle 2 ounces flour (about 1/2 cup) and 1 tablespoon granulated sugar over top. Cover with plastic, and let stand for 1 hour.
• Add remaining 12 ounces flour and 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, the beaten eggs, and the salt. Mix together on medium speed until dough forms a smooth, stiff ball, about 5 minutes. Add butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix dough on medium-high speed for 5 minutes. Reduce speed to low, and add extracts, orange peel, and raisins. Mix until combined.
• Turn out dough onto a clean surface, and form into a ball. Transfer to a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with plastic, and refrigerate overnight.
• Bring dough to room temperature, and divide in half. Form each half into a ball; place each in a 5 1/4-by-3 3/4-inch paper panettone mold or a small brown paper bag that has been rolled down to about 5 inches. Transfer to a baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly beat remaining egg. Brush egg wash onto panettone dough, and sprinkle with pearl sugar and almonds. Bake until golden brown, about 50 minutes.
• Remove molds from oven, and run two wooden skewers horizontally through the center of each panettone loaf. Hang loaves upside down by propping ends of each skewer on 2 large heavy canisters or cans. Let cool completely.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine yeast, water and sugar. Cover and let stand 10 minutes, or until foamy. Add eggs, yogurt, vanilla, lemon zest, and salt. Mix well. Stir in flour 1/2 cup at a time until dough forms into a manageable ball. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 to 10 minutes, adding flour as necessary, until dough is soft and pliable, but not sticky. (May need up to 5 cups flour.) Place dough in a large, lightly pan-sprayed bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and spray a round 8-inch cake pan with non-stick spray. In a small bowl, toss dried fruit with confectioners' sugar. Punch down dough in bowl, transfer to floured surface, and knead in the fruit.
• Form dough into a ball, place in prepared cake pan, cover loosely with dish towel, and let rise 30 minutes. (Loaf will rise above the pan sides.) Brush with melted butter, if desired. Bake for 45 minutes, or until loaf is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Makes 10 wedges.

Steps:

• Soak raisins in rum and 2 tablespoons hot water till plump.
• Mix flour, sugar, salt, yeast, zest and vanilla bean in mixer on low speed until combined.
• Whisk the eggs, remaining water and honey together.
• With mixer at low speed pour in egg mixer into the flour mixture. Increase speed to medium-low to combine.
• Add 12 tablespoons butter one tablespoon at a time, mixing till all is incorporated increasing speed to med-high. Mix for 8-10 minutes till dough is smooth and elastic.
• Meanwhile drain raisins and combine with melted butter.
• Crumble marzipan.
• Stir in the raisins and marzipan.
• Place dough including vanilla bean in a large bowl covered with plastic wrap. Let rise till triple in volume about 12-15 hours in a draft free place. Oven is perfect for this. Overnight is ideal.
• Punch down and remove bean be sure to remove any of the seeds and mix into the dough, discarding the pods.
• On a work surface or sil pad dusted with flour place the dough. Dust the dough. Fold the edges into the center placing seam side down into a panettone mold, clean and dried generously buttered coffee can or a generously buttered bundt pan. Cover with a damp linen towel. NO terry towels! Let rise in a warm draft free spot for 5 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack lower 3rd of oven.
• Place mold on a cookie sheet pan. Using a sharp knife mark the raised dough with an X one inch deep and place the chilled butter into it.
• Bake till toothpick comes out slightly moist NOT wet. About 1 hour at this point it should be very dark.
• Cool completely before cutting.

Steps:

• Select loaf size recommended by the manufacturer of your machine.
• Measure milk, water, egg, butter, salt, flour, sugar and yeast into bread machine pan in the order that the bread machine manufacturer suggests.
• Process in fruit/nut cycle or basic cycle on lightest crust setting.
• *Add chocolate morsels, almonds and cherries at the beep or during the last 5 or 10 minutes of the last kneading cycle.
• Remove baked bread from pan; cool on wire rack.
• Sift powdered sugar over bread.

Steps:

• In bread machine pan, place the first nine ingredients in order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed)., Just before dough cycle is completed, add candied fruit and raisins. , When dough cycle is completed, turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into a 9-in. round loaf; place in a greased 9-in. springform pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 40 minutes. , Preheat oven to 350°; bake until golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Remove sides of pan; cut into wedges.

Steps:

• Grease a panettone tin (see Tip) or a 20cm deep cake tin, or use a panettone case.
• Place the warm milk in a bowl and add the yeast and 1 tsp of sugar and leave for a few minutes.
• Put the remaining sugar in a large bowl and beat together with the butter and vanilla extract until really light, creamy and pale.
• Stir in the lemon and orange zest. Add the eggs a little at a time until all are well incorporated. Spoon in a tablespoon of the flour if the mixture starts to curdle and beat this in with the eggs.
• Place the flour in a large bowl and mix with a good pinch of salt and make a well in the centre. Add the yeast mixture then the butter and egg mixture, folding in with a large spoon to make a soft dough. Knead for 5 mins in the bowl until it all starts to come together. It will be a pretty sticky dough at this stage.
• Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and knead for a further 10 mins, until everything has come together and you have a very soft and stretchy dough. Add a light sprinkling of flour to the surface and your hands as you go to stop the mixture sticking, but try not to add too much. Place in a lightly greased bowl and cover. Place in the fridge overnight to prove.
• Place the raisins and sultanas in a small saucepan with the rum and heat gently for 5 - 7 mins until the fruit has absorbed the liquid and is plump and juicy. Set aside to cool.
• When the dough is risen, tip it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for another 5 mins. Gradually knead in the soaked raisins, sultanas and chopped candied peel. Shape the dough into a ball and pop into the prepared tin. If using a 20cm cake tin, wrap a layer of baking parchment around the outside of the tin, to come up about 5cm above the rim, and secure the paper with string. This will help contain the dough as it rises. Cover lightly with cling film and leave to rise for 3-4 hours depending on your room temperature, until it has doubled in size.
• Preheat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Adjust the oven shelf to the right height. Mix together the almonds, caster sugar and egg white for the topping and gently brush over the top of the panettone. Place in the oven and bake for 40 - 50 mins until golden and risen and a skewer comes out clean when inserted into the middle of the cake. Leave to cool in the tin for 10 mins before turning out onto a wire rack. Leave to cool completely before dusting lightly with icing sugar and cutting into wedges to serve.

Steps:

• Place all of the ingredients except for the mixed fruit into the pan of your bread machine in order directed by manufacturer. Select Sweet or Basic/White bread cycle, and use the Medium or Light crust color. Do not use the delay cycles. Add the fruit 5 to 10 minutes before the last kneading cycle ends, or when the raisin or nut signal starts.
