This is a posh version of bread and butter pudding, rich with cream and vanilla – great for using up any excess Christmas panettone.
Prep: 10 mins
Cook: 35 mins
Difficulty: Easy
Serves: 4
INGREDIENTS
50g butter, softened (optional)
250g panettone (about 5 medium slices)
2 eggs
142ml carton double cream
225ml milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp caster sugar
icing sugar, for sprinkling
softly whipped cream, to serve
METHOD
- Heat the oven to 160C/ 140C fan/ gas 3 and grease a 850ml/1½ pint shallow baking dish with a little of the 50g butter.
- Cut 250g panettone into wedges, leaving the crusts on.
- Butter the slices lightly with the rest of the butter. Cut the slices in half and arrange them in the dish, buttered side up.
- In a bowl, whisk together 2 eggs, 142ml double cream, 225ml milk, 1 tsp vanilla extract and 2 tbsp caster sugar and pour evenly over the panettone.
- Put the dish in a roasting tin and pour hot water around it to a depth of about 2.5cm/1in. Bake for 35 minutes until the pudding is just set – it should be yellow inside and nicely browned on top.
- Dust with icing sugar and serve with spoonfuls of whipped cream.
