This is my variation on yeasted Christmas panettone with ingredients I like, but fewer calories from sugar. You do need to let the panettone rise a number of times and for long periods, but all the rising results in a soft yet firm panettone that is wonderfully sweet thanks to the dried fruit.
Ingredients
- 0.5 cups lukewarm water , divided, or as needed
- 2.25 cups Italian-style tip 00 flour
- 0.75 ounces fresh yeast
- 2 eggs
- 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.25 cups raisins
- 0.25 cups dried blueberries
- 0.25 cups chopped dried apricots
- 3 tablespoons stevia powder
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free candied fruit
- 10 dropss sugar substitute , such as Truvia®
Instructions

1
Combine 1/4 cup lukewarm water, 1/3 of the flour, and yeast in a bowl and dissolve yeast. Cover with a clean dish towel and let rise in a warm place, 8 hours to overnight.

Stir in 1/3 more of the flour and enough warm water to make the dough soft and elastic. Knead together, cover, and let rise in a warm place, about 2 hours. Add remaining flour and a few tablespoons of warm water, knead into a soft and elastic dough, cover, and let rise in a warm place, about 3 hours.

Work in eggs, olive oil, raisins, blueberries, apricots, stevia, candied fruit, and sweetener and knead everything into a soft dough. Place dough in a panettone mold, cover, and let rise in a warm place until dough has almost doubled, about 1 hour.
