Method

  1. Use a little of the butter to grease a 1ltr baking dish. Spread one side of each panettone slice with the remaining butter; cut into triangle quarters.
  2. Layer the panettone, buttered-side up, in the dish, adding small dollops of mincemeat and some nuts as you go. Scatter with the remaining nuts.
  3. Preheat the oven to gas 3, 170°C, fan 150°C. Whisk together the milk, cream, eggs and caster sugar in a jug. Slowly pour over the panettone, pressing down gently to ensure the slices are covered in the custard. Leave to soak for 10 mins.
  4. Put the baking dish in a roasting tin big enough to hold it and pour enough just-boiled water into the tin to come halfway up the sides of the dish. Bake for 35-40 mins until crisp and just set in the middle (there should be a slight wobble to the custard). Serve lightly dusted with icing sugar, if you like.
