  1. 1 To make sponge, warm a small bowl by rinsing it with hot water. Pour in warm water and sprinkle 1 package yeast on it. Let stand until yeast has dissolved. Stir in 1/2 cup flour, cover with plastic wrap, and let stand 30 minutes, or until doubled.
  2. 2 Sprinkle remaining yeast over warm milk. Let stand until dissolved. Beat together sugar, eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla. Stir in milk-yeast mixture. Add sponge and stir until well incorporated.
  3. 3 Combine butter and remaining 3 ½ cups flour until crumbly. Slowly pour in egg mixture and beat on high speed 3 to 4 minutes, until dough is elastic looking and long strands form. Beat in fruit and zests.
  4. 4 Turn dough into oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and leave in a warm place to rise until doubled, about 2 to 3 hours.
  5. 5 Brush inside of three 7 x 4-inch paper molds with melted butter. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead a few times to deflate.
  6. 6 Divide dough into 3 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and drop into prepared molds; place on a baking sheet about 4-inches apart and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place until doubled again, about 2 hours.
  7. 7 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Cut an X in top of each loaf with oiled scissors. Combine egg yolk with cream. Brush tops of loaves lightly with egg wash.
  8. 8 Place baking sheet with loaves in bottom 1/3 of preheated oven. After 10 minutes, lower heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Instructions

  1. 1 Combine milk, oil, salt, orange extract, 2 room temperature eggs, sugar, orange zest, 4 cups flour, and yeast in a bread machine, in that order. Set to Dough cycle and start the machine; be sure to peek inside while dough is mixing and add additional flour as needed to create a soft, but not wet, dough.
  2. 2 Transfer dough to an oiled bowl and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  3. 3 Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to a rapid simmer, add 4 whole eggs, and simmer for 6 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool quickly.
  4. 4 Punch risen dough down and turn onto a floured surface. Divide into 3 equal pieces. Roll each piece to form a 12-inch-long rope, about 1 1/2 inches thick. Braid pieces together, pinching the ends. Loop into a circle, pinch the ends to close, and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Remove eggs from the bowl of ice water, dry, and arrange evenly atop the braid. Push in gently, about 1/3 of the way down. Cover and let rise again, about 1 hour.
  5. 5 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  6. 6 Whisk together remaining room temperature egg, 2 tablespoons water, and anise extract in a small bowl until well combined. Brush braid with egg wash, avoiding boiled eggs; otherwise, while baking, they will have cooked wash on them and won't dye nicely.
  7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven, switching between another parchment-lined baking sheet every 10 minutes throughout baking time to prevent the bottom from getting too dark, until browned, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool thoroughly, 20 to 30 minutes.
  8. 8 Paint eggs on bread with liquid food dye. Be careful not to drip dye onto bread. Let dry for about 10 minutes. Brush bread with anisette liqueur and let dry before serving, about 5 minutes more.

  1. 1 The day before baking, mix flour, cold water, and sourdough starter together in a bowl. Cover and leave out at room temperature, 8 hours to overnight.
  2. 2 At the same time, combine raisins, cherries, and pineapple in a separate bowl. Stir in rum. Let fruit soak, tossing occasionally, 8 hours to overnight.
  3. 3 Pour warm water into large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment. Add yeast and let dissolve for 10 minutes. Add eggs, 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, vanilla extract, orange zest, and lemon zest. Whisk together. Scoop in the panettone starter. Add flour and salt.
  4. 4 Knead until dough is very smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed. Add butter; knead until butter is completely mixed in and dough is soft and somewhat sticky, about 5 minutes. Transfer to your work surface.
  5. 5 Toss and fold your dough into a rough ball shape using wet fingers and a bench scraper. Transfer dough back to the bowl. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 3 hours.
  6. 6 Transfer dough back to your work surface and shape into a rough ball. Place into a resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
  7. 7 Remove dough from the bag and press out into a flat rectangle. Sprinkle with flour and roll out to at least 1/2-inch thickness. Spread the dried fruit all over the surface. Roll dough up into a log, sealing in the fruit. Roll both ends of the log toward the middle and smooth it over into a ball.
  8. 8 Place dough ball into a short, wide paper panettone mold. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until dough is at least 2/3 of the way up the sides, 3 to 4 hours.
  9. 9 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  10. 10 Mix egg and water together and brush mixture on top of the panettone. Cut 2 slits crosswise on top.
  11. 11 Bake in the preheated oven until beautifully browned, 40 to 45 minutes. Poke 2 skewers through either side of the panettone and flip it over into a panettone hole or a Dutch oven. Let cool upside-down for 2 hours.

  5. 5 Transfer dough to a well-floured work surface; knead until shiny and elastic, 8 to 10 minutes. Knead in up to 1 cup more flour if dough is still sticky. Shape dough into a ball, transfer to a large, greased bowl, and turn to coat. Cover the bowl with greased plastic wrap.
  6. 6 Place dough in a warm place; let rise until doubled in volume, 1 ½ to 2 hours. Punch down dough, cover the bowl, and let rise again, 1 ½ hours more.
  7. 7 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 3 tube pans.
  8. 8 Combine 1 cup flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a medium bowl; cut in ¼ cup butter until coarse crumbs form. Sprinkle streusel in bottom of the prepared pans.
