But it will definitely feel like you’re just eating a super-soft cupcake if you don’t roll them in sugar! I have tested the recipe at different stages with Sorghum Flour in place of oat flour (as I know there are many Coeliacs who are also oat intolerant) and this has worked pretty well. Whether you use a hand mixer or stand mixer is up to you, as long as the mixer has a dough hook attachment. However, I urge you to look through the post itself as it has important information on how to get the best from the recipe.

This traditional Italian Christmas treat is just as it should be… A subtle hybrid of bread and cake, with a light, open and airy crumb… Moist and buttery with a sense-tingling aroma and flavour of citrus and vanilla, dappled with juicy bites of fruit.

You’ll see xanthan gum in a lot of my recipes as it’s an essential ingredient in gluten-free baking. But needless to say, when they start getting a little dry, they’re probably starting to get past their best. Please remember to give it 5 stars if you tried it and enjoyed it as it helps people know it’s worth trying too!

It's primarily used to make your baked goods rise and add fluff to a piece of bread or a cinnamon roll. Compared to an authentic gluten-based Panettone recipe (which is famed for being incredibly difficult, takes 3 days to make, uses an additional ‘starter’ and has to be proofed and rested several times), I’d say my gluten free Panettone is actually relatively straight forward. The dough is quite stiff and needs to be mixed for longer periods of time than many gluten free breads. To create the rolls, you will need to use the clingfilm to guide the longest edge of the rectangle nearest you into a curl. However you hang it, the important bit is to make absolutely sure that EVERYTHING you need is ready and set up BEFORE you take the Panettone out of the oven.I’m not a huge fan of GF wheat starch flour… I think it has its place (I hear it makes very good pizza), but Panettone is very unique.
