Did you know that
To prepare this recipe we used a specific blend of gluten-free flours with the addition of leavening agent (instant): in this recipe, therefore, we will exploit the slow action of brewer's yeast and the instant action of the chemical leavening agent that is found in the gluten free preparation.
Gluten-free doughs are very delicate and sensitive. The gums (eg guar gum, tara gum, xanthan gum) stabilize the structure of the dough and create a texture capable of retaining gases during yeast fermentation.
Before preparing recipes intended for gluten intolerant, it is recommended to check that each package shows the mark of the crossed ear to ascertain its absence.
It is possible to replace (or combine) raisins with chocolate chips or candied fruit.- Cover the bowl with a sheet of cling film and let it rest in a warm environment (eg near the radiator or in an oven preheated to 200 ° C for 2 minutes, then turned off) for a couple of hours.
Attention!
Unlike classic leavened doughs (with gluten), this one will not grow very much during leavening. The most noticeable growth will be in cooking.- After two hours, divide the dough into 8 equal parts and distribute it in 8 respective paper cups for mini panettone. Alternatively, you can use the silicone or aluminum muffin molds.
- Place the cups in a solid muffin mold to keep the shape. Level the surface of the mini panettone with a brush greased with butter (or oil).
- Leave to rise again for another hour and a half or two.
- At the end of the leavening, bake the gluten-free panettone in a preheated (and ventilated) oven at 180 ° C for 10 minutes.Then lower the temperature to 160 ° C without opening the oven door and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the surface appears golden.
- Remove from the oven, allow to cool and serve with an icing to taste or with simple icing sugar.
