Ingredients

• All-purpose flour - 250 grams
• Granulated sugar - 50 grams
• Active dry yeast - 5 grams
• Warm water - 75 ml
• Soy milk - 100 ml
• Vegetable oil - 30 ml
• Orange zest - 1 teaspoon
• Lemon zest - 1 teaspoon
• Vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/4 teaspoon
• Dried cranberries - 50 grams

Steps

1. In a small bowl, dissolve the active dry yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Mix well.
3. Add the yeast mixture, soy milk, vegetable oil, orange zest, lemon zest, and vanilla extract to the flour mixture. Stir until a dough forms.
4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
5. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
6. Once risen, gently punch down the dough and fold in the dried cranberries and candied orange peel.
7. Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a small, greased cake pan or a deep muffin tin.
8. Cover again and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes.
9. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
10. Bake the panettone for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
11. Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
