Ingredients

  1. Panettone - 1 (sliced into 2cm (about 0.8 inch) half moons)
  2. eggs - 2
  3. milk - 250ml
  4. brown sugar - 3 tbsp
  5. grated nutmeg - 1/4 tsp
  6. cinnamon - 1 tsp
  7. fresh berries - 800g (e.g., blueberries and raspberries)
  8. caster sugar - 3 tbsp
  9. whipping cream - 300ml
  10. vanilla pod - 1 (split and seeds scraped)
  11. icing sugar - 1 tbsp
  12. unsalted butter - 3 tbsp

Instructions

  1. Prepare Egg Mixture: Whisk together the eggs, milk, brown sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon until well combined.
  2. Macerate Berries: Mix the fresh berries with the caster sugar and set aside at room temperature for about 25 minutes.
  3. Whip Cream: Combine the whipping cream, vanilla pod (split and seeds scraped), and icing sugar. Whisk until soft peaks form.
  4. Cook Panettone: Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat. Melt butter. Dip each panettone slice into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated, and fry for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
  5. Prepare Berry Mixture: Give the berry mixture a final stir, lightly mashing about a third of the berries to release their juices.
  6. Plate and Serve: Place a piece of cooked panettone on a plate, top with the berry mixture, and add a dollop of whipped cream. Serve immediately.
