Ingredients
- 1 loaf panettone, halved
- 2 cups egg nog (or 2 cups half and half, 3 egg yolks,3 whole eggs)
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup rum
- Vegetable oil, as required
- Dash of ground cinnamon, for serving

- Mis the egg nog with 2 eggs and run.
- Pour egg nog mixture over the bread and allow it to absorb
- If not using premade egg nog, crack the eggs into a separate bowl and whisk them thoroughly, along with the egg yolks, half and half, nutmeg, vanilla extract and a splash of rum until well combined.
- Grease a baking pan and place the bread in it.
- Level out the surface with few bread cubes sticking out and place the pan it within a larger roasting pan.
- Fill the pan with the boiling water from the kettle and bake the bread pudding for about 20 minutes or until the surface browns as well as puffs up and a toothpick comes out spotless when inserted into it, thus indicating that the pudding is baked through.
- Take it out of the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes
- Serve warm alongside whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, with a dash of cinnamon although it tastes equally well if served cold.
