Description

Bananas Foster Bread Pudding is a delicious dessert made with bread, bananas, and a rich custard, topped with a warm rum sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups cubed stale French or Italian bread
  • 4 ripe bananas, sliced
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup dark rum
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
  • Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the cubed bread and sliced bananas. Gently toss to mix.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
  4. Pour the custard mixture over the bread and bananas, ensuring everything is well coated. Let it sit for about 15 minutes.
  5. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  6. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, dark rum, and nutmeg (if using). Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.
  7. Pour the rum sauce evenly over the bread pudding mixture.
  8. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Remove from the oven and let it cool for about 10-15 minutes before serving.
  10. Serve warm with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.

Notes

  • Ensure the bread is stale for better texture.
  • Adjust sugar based on the sweetness of bananas.
  • Use ripe bananas for the best flavor.
