Italian French Toast

On Christmas Eve, we received a package from Parma, Italy from our friends Paolo and Stefania. It was full of delicious treats. This morning I made French toast with the panettone bread they sent us. The bread was sweet and full of raisins and oranges. It made the most delicious breakfast!

Guess we'll start our diets tomorrow :)

 

It's so pretty, I almost didn't want to open it (but so glad I did).

It's like a huge cupcake.

All ready for its custard bath!

If only the computer screen was a scratch and sniff.....

Yum!
