Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large Panettone
  • 4 large eggs
  • 220 ml milk
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 teaspoon ginger
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • unsalted butter for frying

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl whisk together the add the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract and spices.
  • Slice the panettone into chunky slices. I aim for about a thumbs width per slice.
  • Heat up a non-stick frying on a medium heat. When it is warm add about a teaspoon of butter and let it melt.
  • Dip the bread into the eggy/milk mix. Make sure both sides are covered and gently place it into the frying pan. Cook for a minute or two on both sides until golden brown.
  • Either plate it up and give it to the first hungry friend or family member to start enjoying or as it’s Christmas place it on a warmed plate while you cook the remaining slices so you can serve the table with a tower of delicious festive French Toast.

Notes

  • Extra decorations are a sprig of holly (please remember these are just decorative), or even a dried orange slice of the cinnamon stick if you want to make them really insta-ready.
  • Serve with a cranberry compote, maple syrup, honey or a sprinkling of icing sugar if you want to make it really festive!
  • Fresh fruit is also lovely to add. I love strawberries on mine.
