A twist on the classic Bread & Butter Pudding, Chocolate Orange Panettone Pudding is sure to become your favourite way of using up leftover panettone!
Chocolate Orange Panetonne Pudding is a festive version of Bread and Butter Pudding and a delicious way to use up leftover Panetonne. However, be warned, you’ll probably find yourself buying more to make it again!
I’m not quite sure what has happened this year but my usual January healthy eating kick just hasn’t really got going! I blame the mild December we had followed by the sudden chill we got in the last few weeks.
So this and the need to use up some leftover food from Christmas has meant my January recipes look nothing like those of previous years and instead are full of comfort food.
Forgive me then for another Bread and Butter style pudding in the form of Chocolate Orange Panettone Pudding!
I thought I probably wasn’t the only one who had bought extra panetonne up after Christmas (love Christmas food sales don’t you)?
So, if you’d like to use your leftover panetonne up too, then this recipe is for you!

If you’re not keen on orange zest you could always leave it out and if you have more chocolate chips you could add those.
I used 20 g as that is all that I had as I have a chocolate Hoover in the house, namely my daughter, so if it’s not bolted down I’m very lucky to find any left!

Have you managed to get January off to a healthy start? Or are you like me and seem to be hanging on to the winter comfort food?
I’m not going to beat myself up over it as things will balance out very soon I’m sure, spring is just around the corner after all!
I feel a wave of healthy posts coming on, just wait and see!

Sally
Can you soak for longer…ie prepare before a dinner party and then put in oven later
Camilla
Yes Sally that would be fine, having looked on the internet I see some people even soak overnight although I have never tried this.
Anna
Hi Sally
I’m thinking of making this for Xmas day but it would mean making it Xmas eve… did u try making it the day before and if so how did it work out?
Anna
Camilla
Hi Anna, apologies I’m not Sally but if it was me I’d make up the dish of bread and cover, make up the custard and pop in fridge, then pour over in the morning and pop back in fridge until you’re ready to bake (probably when the roast comes out of the oven and can be baking while you eat).
Anna
Thanks Camilla that’s a good idea!
Camilla
Thank you Anna, Happy Christmas:-)
