Breakfast Panettone cups
Updated: Jan 10, 2022
Do you guys still have some leftover Panettone lying around your pantry? 🤔
If you live in Italy, I bet you do!
If you don't, I hope you can find it somewhere and give it a try!
Panettone is a traditional yeast-leavened bread stuffed with candied fruit and raisins and it's a Christmas staple in almost every Italian home so after the holidays it's almost impossible not having some leftovers.
Here a super easy and delicious idea to give this dessert a new life: Breakfast Panettone cups! 💁♀️
How? Cut out some round slices and bake them inside a muffin tin.
Then, when ready to serve, fill them with yogurt and whatever cereal you have on hand (I used Fruity Pebbles, LIFE Cinnamon, Coco Pops and Honey Loops!).
I adapted this recipe from Chiarapassion but you can also read my version below.
INGREDIENTS:
Panettone*
--- TOPPINGS ---
coconut yogurt
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and prepare your muffin tin (no oil or butter is necessary for the pan).
Slice the panettone horizontally into 1 cm slices (I made 2 slices).
Cut out some round pieces with an 8 cm cookie cutter and place them inside the muffin tin.
Press down the panettone to shape the cups and bake them for about 10-12 minutes, until they are golden and crisp on the edges.
Let them cool before removing from the pan.
Fill them up with yogurt and cereal.
Enjoy :)
RECIPE NOTES:
You can fill up these cups with whatever you want. Here are some suggestions: greek yogurt, pastry cream, mascarpone cream, chocolate cream... or, as suggested by Chiarapassion, you can even try a savory combination adding gorgonzola and ham.
