- Begin by soaking your raisins in Negrita rum.
- In the mixer bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, honey, and baker’s yeast. Add the fermented dough, followed by the eggs, vanilla beans, and milk. Start kneading with the paddle attachment at medium speed for 3 minutes. Gradually incorporate the softened butter. Form the mixture into a ball and allow the dough to rise until it doubles in size, about one hour.
- Fold the dough and incorporate the rum-soaked raisins. Place the dough into your panettone mold and let it rise again.
- Meanwhile, prepare your macaronade by mixing the almonds, egg whites, and brown sugar. Once the panettone has risen, spread the macaronade on top of the dough.
- Bake the panettone in an oven preheated to 170°C for 1 hour.
- Once baked, remove the panettone from the mold and transfer it to a rack to cool before enjoying.
