Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas
- 6 cups day-old bread
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with the unsalted butter.
Slice the ripe bananas and set aside. Cut the day-old bread into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In another bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Pour the milk mixture over the bread cubes and gently fold in the sliced bananas. Stir everything together until the bread cubes are soaked and evenly mixed.
Transfer the bread and custard mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes, giving the bread cubes time to absorb the custard.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the pudding is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for extra indulgence.
