1. Panettone granola
If you’re a fan of panettone and brunch, this is the perfect recipe. You need 100 g of panettone to make this – buy a big one and make a couple of batches to give to loved ones, or a small one and make it for the one person who will appreciate it most. Bonus: turning it into granola preserves this festive fave beautifully. Enjoy with fresh fruit and yoghurt, or with Khanya’s favourite: warm milk!
