Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 50 grams butter (softened)
  • 400 grams panettone (about 10-12 medium slices)
  • 300 grams mincemeat
  • 2 eggs (large)
  • 150 millilitres double cream
  • 250 millilitres milk
  • 1 vanilla pod (seeds only)
  • 2 tbsp cognac
  • Brown sugar (for sprinkling)
  • Single cream (or brandy butter to serve)

Instruction

  • Preheat your oven to gas mark 3 (or 160C for electric ovens).
  • Cut the panettone into roughly 10 slices (crusts and all) and butter them on each side.
  • Arrange them in a large oven dish spooning mincemeat in between each layer.
  • In a separate bowl whisk together the eggs, cream, milk, vanilla and cognac.
  • Pour evenly over the panettone slices.
  • Just before putting into the oven, sprinkle with light brown sugar.
  • Put the dish into the centre of your oven and bake for 30-35mins until the pudding is set but still with a little bit of a wobble and the top is crisp and golden.
  • Serve with single cream (or if you are feeling particularly luxurious, brandy butter!)
