Method

step 1

Combine the panettone, fruit and mixed spice in a large bowl. Stir in the milk and egg, then mix in the brown sugar and citrus zests. Leave to stand for 10 mins. Butter a 25 x 8cm baking dish, about 6cm deep.
step 2

Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Stir the melted butter into the mixture, then tip into the prepared dish. Scatter over enough demerara sugar to lightly cover the surface, then bake for 45 mins-1 hr. Leave to cool until just warm, then cut into squares and serve with cream, crème fraîche or clotted cream. Or, leave to cool fully and serve cold.
