📝 Notes on ingredients:
If you don’t like candied fruit, replace it with chopped walnuts, almonds, or chocolate pieces.
The milk should be warm, not hot, to avoid damaging the yeast.
If using dry yeast, dissolve it in the warm milk for a few minutes beforehand.
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Preparation
1. Blend the base
In your blender, place the warm milk, eggs, sugar, melted butter, citrus zest, vanilla extract, and yeast.
Blend until you have a smooth, fragrant, and homogeneous mixture. This will be the heart of your homemade panettone in a blender.
💡 Tip: If your blender isn’t very powerful, you can blend in two batches. The important thing is that the yeast dissolves well.
2. Form the dough
Pour the mixture into a large bowl. Add the sifted flour along with a pinch of salt.
Mix with a wooden spoon or your hands until you have a soft, moist dough that isn’t too sticky. If necessary, you can add an extra tablespoon of flour.
👵 Grandma’s tip: « Don’t overwork the dough; just mix enough to combine. This way, your panettone will be light and airy. »
