Italian "Easter Dove" bread, also called Colomba Primavera, is a traditional Italian Easter Bread with candied fruits and almonds. It is similar to Panettone. You could use for a baked french toast to serve Easter Morning, as I do with the Panettone on Christmas.
If you are lucky enough to have a local Italian bakery, why make your own. If not, the store bought versions are pretty darn good. Of course, we know why we would rather make our own. It's the love of cooking, the ritual, the tradition.... and time spent with mom in the kitchen.
This year, I must confess, I bought mine. Until I dig out my old recipe, I have posted a link to one for you here.
