  1. Mix the yeast and water in a small bowl and allow to stand until creamy. That’s about 10 minutes or so.
  2. Mix in the flour.
  3. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to double in size for about 20 to 30 minutes
  4. Mix the yeast and water in a large bowl and allow to stand until creamy. Again, about 10 minutes or so
  5. Mix in the sponge and beat well with a wooden spoon
  6. Stir in the eggs, flour and sugar.
  7. Mix in the butter well
  8. This should only take about 5 – 6 minutes
  9. Cover with plastic wrap and allow double in size, about 1 – 1 ¼ hours
  10. Be sure to have your dough in a large bowl as above.
  11. With a wooden spoon mix in eggs, egg yolk, sugar, honey, vanilla, essences/extracts and salt.
  12. Mix in the butter.
  13. Then add the flour. Stir until smooth.
  14. At this stage the dough will seem a little too soft, like cookie dough.
  15. Turn it out and knead it on a well-floured surface until it sort of holds its shape. Don’t knead in too much flour but you may need as much as 2/3 cup (100 gm). Be careful the excess flour will affect the finished product.
  16. Add the flour and slowly incorporate.
  17. At this stage the dough will seem a little too soft, like cookie dough.
  18. Replace the paddle with the dough hook and knead for about 2 minutes.
  19. Turn out the dough and knead it on a well-floured surface until it sort of holds its shape.
  20. Don’t knead in too much flour but you may need as much as 2/3 cup (100 gm). Be careful the excess flour will affect the finished product.
  21. Oil a large bowl lightly, plop in your dough and cover with plastic wrap
  22. Now we need to let it rise until it has tripled in size. There are two ways to go about this.
  23. Rise in a warm place for 2 – 4 hours
  24. Or find a cool spot (64°F -68°F) (18°C – 20°C) and rise overnight
  25. Or rise for 2 hours on your kitchen bench then slow the rise down and place in the refrigerator overnight. If you do this it will take some time to wake up the next morning but I preferred this method.
  26. Soak the raisin/sultanas in water 30 minutes before the end of the first rise. Drain and pat dry with paper towels.
  27. Now take your dough and cut it in half.
  28. Combine all your filling ingredients and mix well
  29. Press out one portion of dough into an oval shape
  30. Sprinkle over one quarter of the filling and roll up the dough into a log
  31. Press out again into an oval shape and sprinkle over another quarter of the filling
  32. Roll into a log shape again.
  33. Repeat with the second portion of dough
  34. Shape each into a ball and slip into your prepared pans or homemade panettone papers.
  35. Cut an X into the top of each panettone and allow to double in size.
  36. Rising time will vary according to method of first rise. If it has been in the refrigerator it could take 4 hours or more. If it has been rising on the kitchen bench in a warm place it should be doubled in about 2 hours.
  37. When you think your dough has only about 30 minutes left to rise preheat your oven to moderately hot 400°F/200°C/gas mark 6 and adjust your oven racks
  38. Just before baking carefully (don’t deflate it!) cut the X into the dough again and place in a knob of butter.
  39. Place your panettoni in the oven and bake for 10 minutes
  40. Reduce the heat to moderate 350°F/180°C/gas mark 4 and bake for another 10 minutes
  41. Reduce the heat again to moderate 325°F/160°C/gas mark 3 and bake for 30 minutes until the tops are well browned and a skewer inserted into the panettone comes out clean.
  42. Cool the panettone completely.
