The Italian Christmas fruitcake Is best served at brunch.

By Jennifer Dorman, Brunch & Batter 

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1lb (16 oz, or up to 17.6 oz) Italian panettone classic/traditional flavor
  • 4 large eggs
  • ½ cup half and half or milk
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon orange zest
  • butter for pan
  • powdered sugar and maple syrup for serving

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Cut the panettone into vertical slices about ¾-1 inch thick- you will get about 5-6 slices. Then cut the slices in half (I like to make triangles).
  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, half and half, vanilla, and orange zest until well combined.
