Panettone bread and butter pudding

This is Damon's tweaked version. There is another version that we make at New Year, bigger and with more cream.

Damon experimentation. Serves 4. 8 steps

215g panettone	cut into 1cm slices, toast until golden		Layer panettone and apricots in 1.25 litre baking dish, pour custard over. Bake in slow oven 35 minutes or until just set.
5 dried apricots	slivered
custard
220g cream		scald, discard cinnamon
500g milk
1 stick cinnamon
2 eggs	beat	mix in
1 egg yolk
90g sugar
1 lemon's rind	grated

If you cook it too long, the custard will curdle (but still taste just as nice).

This custard is very eggy!
