  •  
  • Ingredients
  • 4 servings
  • 250 g of classic Panettone
  • Milk q.s
  • Flour q.s
  • The juice of an orange
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 sachet of yeast
  • Sugar to taste
  • Salt and sugar to taste
  • Sunflower oil, enough to fill a high-sided pan
 
Directions
Cut the panettone into pieces and soak it in milk, mix and mash with the help of a spoon, until completely absorbed (squeeze to remove any excess milk). This will form the first dough
Mix the eggs with 3 tablespoons of sugar, add a pinch of salt, the orange juice, to the panettone dough, add the flour to reach a creamy consistency and finally add the yeast
Let rest for 20 minutes. When the oil is ready*, with the help of two spoons form small balls and dip them in the oil until they turn a nice amber color.
Remove from the oil with the aid of a skimmer and allow the frittelle to dry for a few minutes on absorbent paper. When done, sprinkle with sugar, and enjoy them while they are hot.
Chef's Tip
*To see if the oil has reached the optimal temperature for frying, dip a couple of wooden toothpicks in the oil; if there are lots of bubbles around them, the oil is ready.
Bon appetit!
