Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces Ripe bananas
- 6 cups Day-old bread (cubed)
- 2 cups Milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter (for greasing)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with unsalted butter.
Peel and mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
Add the milk, heavy cream, eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground nutmeg, ground cinnamon, and salt to the bowl with the mashed bananas. Whisk until the custard mixture is smooth and well combined.
Add the cubed day-old bread to the custard mixture. Gently stir until all the bread pieces are soaked in the custard. Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
Pour the bread and custard mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 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.
Optionally, dust the top with powdered sugar before serving. Serve warm as is or with a scoop of ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for extra indulgence.
