Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. For the crumble, tear half the panettone into small pieces, then blitz the rest to crumbs using a food processor. Set aside. Rub the flour and butter together until the texture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in all of the panettone and the hazelnuts, then drizzle in 3 tbsp of the ginger syrup. Set aside.
step 2
Put the pears in a medium baking dish, then stir in the stem ginger and remaining syrup, the lemon zest and juice. Bake for 20 mins until starting to soften (if the pears are underripe, they may need 10-15 mins more).
step 3
Scatter over the crumble mixture, then bake for a further 15-20 mins until the crumble is golden and the pears are soft. Serve with cream, ice cream or custard, if you like.
