Panettone Challah
I know it’s a little late but Panettone makes me always happy. For those of you who aren’t familiar with panettone, it is a rich Italian sweet bread prepared usually around Christmas time. The preparation of panettone takes a few days which involves careful attention to details. I decided to make an easier version for you guys so you can enjoy this magic for the upcoming Shabbat dinner.
So shall we??
Ingredients:
For the challah-
500 gr white flour
230 ml lukewarm water
50 gr sugar
60 ml extra virgin olive oil
10 gr dry yeast
10 gr sea salt
1 egg
Panettone add-ins-
40 gr candied oranges
30 gr dried apricots
20 gr dried cranberries
20 gr golden raisins
30 gr chocolate chips
Preparation steps:
– Soak the panettone add-ins (without the chocolate) for 10 min. Drain and keep to add to the dough.
– In the stand mixer’s bowl mix the water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 10 min.
– Add the egg. Add the flour and then the olive oil. Don’t mix.
– Start kneading the dough until starts coming together.
– Knead for 4 min. Add the salt.
– Change the speed of the mixer one level up. Add the panettone add-ins. Mix for 8 min.
– Round the dough and place it in a greased bowl covered with a towel. Let it rest until doubled in size.
– Divide as you like, I divided this beauty into 6 pieces of 150 gr each.
– Round each piece to a ball. Cover with a towel and let it sit for 10 min.
– Open the balls to strands and braid. Decorate the challah with more panettone toppings.
– Let her prove. You know it is ready to be baked when you touched the strands (gently!!!!!) and it bounced back slowly.
– Brush with egg yolk mixed with a sip of water. Don’t make a pool of egg on the challah. Light Brushing. We don’t want an omelet on our bread!
– Bake in a preheated oven to 380F or 190C for about 25 min. If the top of the challah gets brown too fast, cover the top with aluminum foil.
– Cool the challah on a rack.
– Mind-blowing Next day French toast guaranteed.
