Serves: Serves 2-4
Ingredients
  • 4x2cm (1in) thick, round slices of Panettone
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup (250ml) milk
  • butter, to cook
  • fruit, mint and maple syrup to serve
Instructions
  1. To get the round slices of panettone, remove the paper wrapping, and lay it on its side. Using a serrated bread knife, gently slice 2cm/1in thick rounds, being careful not to squash the loaf.
  2. In a wide, shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. No sugar is necessary, as the bread is sweet enough.
  3. Preheat the waffle iron to a medium-high setting (that's 4 out of 6 on my Cuisinart) and brush with a little butter.
  4. Quickly dunk a slice of panettone into the egg mix, flip and dunk the other side, and then hold up to drain. You need to be quick, as it is SUPER absorbent and will get too soggy very quickly.
  5. Place the panettone into the waffle machine, and close the lid, but don't press down. Just sit it on top of the waffle, gently - the weight of the lid will be enough.
  6. Cook until dark golden brown.
  7. Repeat with the remaining slices, and serve with fruit, mint and maple syrup!
