I came across this simple treat years ago when watching Jamie Oliver in one of his early TV shows: Panettone in a bread & butter pudding provides a flavorful basis loaded with raisins & candied lemons & candied oranges – so you only need to add eggs & milk & …
I started w/ a medium size panettone of about 500 g bought in my trusted food store. At first I thought about using the whole panettone, but then I made a touchdown in reality. Having in mind the size of the casserole I planned to use & the number of people to indulge in the dessert – mainly my better half & me – I decided to confine me to half of the panettone.
Of course you may also start w/ plain white bread or brioche … Then you’ll have to add raisins, candied fruit as you like it.
Just cut the panettone into halves & then cut a half into slices like on the photo. Always have in mind that there is another half waiting for you – so resist the temptation to start eating the buttered slices at once!
What do we need?
Surprisingly few ingredients:
- panettone in slices
- caster sugar & vanilla sugar
- zest of an organic orange
- eggs
- milk & cream.
Start w/ preheating the oven to 160° C fan.
As I already stated – so once more: make a row of panettone slices & butter them generously. Grate the zest of the organic orange. Mix milk, cream, sugar, vanilla sugar & eggs w/ an egg whip. Add the orange zest.
Butter the casserole.
Dip each slice of buttered panettone in the liquid & arrange the slices in the casserole. Just stack them up – as evenly as possible. Finally pour the rest of the liquid in the casserole.
Add some brown sugar on top – ready to march into the preheated oven.
After about 40 min the bread & butter pudding is done. The liquid has thickened & is very creamy when leaving the oven. It’ll set a little more when cooling – even more when resting the fridge. Leave the bread & butter pudding in the casserole & cut out heaps of the delicious mess w/ a tablespoon.
You may serve the dessert when coming out of the oven – ok: it’s very, very hot! So better let it set for about 10-15 min. You may also let it cool down to room temperature. In my opinion that’s the best version for the dessert.
Enjoy!
