Panettone, that most glorious of Italian holiday breads (think love child of brioche, challah and fruitcake), makes for decadent French-toast fodder. Repurpose your cupola-shaped loaf this season for brunch, and kick up its flavour profile several notches with vanilla, cinnamon and, brace for it, orange marmalade syrup. The pièce de résistance here is the garnish of yogurt, crushed amaretti cookies and orange slices. French toast has never had it so good.
