Panettone French Toast by Stefano

Preparation time 15 minutes

Total time: 1 hour

Ingredients

  1. 15 mL (1 tbsp.) unsalted butter
  2. 1 (500 g) Stefano’s Traditional Panettone, cut into 6–8 slices
  3. 4 eggs
  4. 80 mL (⅓ cup) sugar
  5. 2.5 mL (½ tsp.) salt
  6. 750 mL (3 cups) milk
  7. 60 mL (¼ cup) chopped almonds
  8. To taste icing sugar, to garnish

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 180 °C (350 °F) and butter a deep baking dish large enough to place all panettone slices in a single layer, with each slice slightly overlapping (approximately 23 x 13 cm or 9 x 5 in.).
  2. Place panettone slices on a baking sheet and lightly grill in the oven for about 10 minutes or until they are dry to the touch but still soft. Lay them in buttered baking dish as explained above.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, sugar and salt. Add milk and whisk until smooth. 
  4. Pour mixture through a fine mesh strainer over panettone slices, allowing excess liquid to cover dish. Garnish with almonds. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 to 60 minutes. The panettone slices should absorb all the liquid.
  5. Allow to cool at least 30 minutes before serving. Use a sieve to sprinkle with icing sugar and serve.
