💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Proof your panettone dough at exactly 78-82°F for optimal yeast activity - any higher and the butter will melt, any lower and fermentation slows dramatically, affecting the characteristic airy texture.technique78-82°F
- ✓Use Manitoba flour (14-15% protein) or bread flour for panettone because the high gluten content is essential for supporting the heavy fruit load and achieving the tall, dome structure.ingredient14-15% protein
- ✓Incorporate butter at 65-68°F during the second dough stage - it should be pliable but not soft, allowing for proper lamination without breaking the gluten network.technique65-68°F
- ✓Hang your baked panettone upside down for 8-12 hours using skewers through the base to prevent collapse as the crumb structure sets and moisture redistributes.timing8-12 hours
