Panettone French Toast

Print

Panettone, a traditional Italian sweet bread, is a delightful treat that takes center stage during festive seasons. Its light and airy texture, combined with a rich and sweet flavor, make it a popular choice for holiday celebrations. One creative and delicious way to enjoy panettone is by transforming it into free toast. This unique twist on traditional toast involves slicing the panettone and toasting it to perfection, creating a delightful crunchy exterior that contrasts with the soft, pillowy interior.

Cooking Time: 15min

Serving: 2 servings
