Ingredients:
To make Chef Giovanni's top Italian chef panettone recipe, you will need:
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup warm milk
1/4 cup warm water
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cupdried fruits (such as raisins, cranberries, and cherries)
1/2 cupchopped nuts (such as almonds, pistachios, and hazelnuts)
Zest of 1 orange and 1 lemon

1/4 teaspoonnutmeg
Equipment:
Large mixing bowl

Pastry brush
Parchment paper
Large mixing spoon
9-inch round cake pan
Plastic wrap
Sharp knife
Cooling rack
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Using an electric mixer on low speed, mix in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm milk, warm water, eggs, and vanilla extract. Gradually add this mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms. Then, add in the dried fruits, chopped nuts, orange and lemon zest, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix until well combined.
Step 2: Knead the Dough
On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough for 10-15 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic. Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise for 2 hours in a warm place, until it doubles in size.
Step 3: Shape and Bake the Panettone
Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper. Once the dough has risen, transfer it onto a lightly floured surface and roll it into a large rectangle. Starting from the long side, roll the dough tightly and place it into the prepared cake pan. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise for another hour. Once it has risen, use a sharp knife to score an "X" on the top of the dough. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until the top is golden brown. Let it cool on a cooling rack before serving.
