Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 cups stale bread
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 large eggs
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter.
Cut the stale bread into 1-inch cubes and place them into the greased baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
Add the milk, heavy cream, eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt to the mashed bananas. Whisk the mixture until well combined.
Pour the banana mixture over the bread cubes in the baking dish, ensuring all the bread is soaked.
Gently press down on the bread to help it absorb the banana mixture evenly.
Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the top of the soaked bread mixture.
Distribute small pieces of the unsalted butter across the top of the pudding.
Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid fully.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the pudding is set.
Remove the pudding from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
