  • Gugelhopf - Swiss Panetone

    As far as I know this is only made in Switzerland (...nope, I just checked, South Germans also bake it, too), but in any case it tastes a bit like Panetone. Only different.

    300 g flour
    20 g fresh yeast
    5 g salt
    100 g melted butter
    2.5 dl milk
    1 egg
    60 g sugar
    grated peel of 1 lemon
    150 g raisons, sultanas, candied friut OR almonds (or any mixture thereof) -this one has half and half of raisins and almonds.

    Put all the ingredients in a bowl and beat with a wooden spoon until the mixture starts throwing bubbles. Pour it into a 1.5 litre greased baking form (here they have special Gugelhopf tins with a hole in the middle) and let rise til doubled. Then bake at 200-220 C for about 1/2 an hour. Turn it out and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

    Wow, Frances! That's gorgeous. Is it a holiday treat (if memory serves) like panetone or made all year long?

      Thank you George

      Gugelhopf is made all the year round, especially for aperos and things like that, probably because its not as sweet as regular cake. There's also a salty version with bacon and walnuts in it, goes down very well with white wine or champagne - I'll post that one when I next make it.

          Sounds like a great recipe. Can't wait to try it. (Fyi )We only get the panatone around Christmas here. If you should ever have any left over, or just something a little differant. Use this bread to make a bread pudding. Taste great.
