Ingredients
- Panettone - 1 (sliced into 2cm (about 0.8 inch) half moons)
- eggs - 2
- milk - 250ml
- brown sugar - 3 tbsp
- grated nutmeg - 1/4 tsp
- cinnamon - 1 tsp
- fresh berries - 800g (e.g., blueberries and raspberries)
- caster sugar - 3 tbsp
- whipping cream - 300ml
- vanilla pod - 1 (split and seeds scraped)
- icing sugar - 1 tbsp
- unsalted butter - 3 tbsp
Instructions
- Prepare Egg Mixture: Whisk together the eggs, milk, brown sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Macerate Berries: Mix the fresh berries with the caster sugar and set aside at room temperature for about 25 minutes.
- Whip Cream: Combine the whipping cream, vanilla pod (split and seeds scraped), and icing sugar. Whisk until soft peaks form.
- 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.
- Prepare Berry Mixture: Give the berry mixture a final stir, lightly mashing about a third of the berries to release their juices.
- 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.
