Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces Ripe bananas
- 0.75 cup Nutella
- 6 cups Day-old bread (e.g., brioche or French bread), cubed
- 3 pieces Eggs
- 2 cups Milk
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
Peel the bananas and slice them into 1/4-inch rounds. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
Add the cubed bread to the egg mixture and gently toss to coat. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes, allowing the bread to soak up the liquid.
Gently fold in the banana slices into the bread mixture.
Pour half of the bread mixture into the prepared baking dish. Dollop half of the Nutella onto the mixture, using a spoon to lightly swirl it around.
Add the remaining bread mixture on top, followed by the rest of the Nutella, swirling again with a spoon.
In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, flour, and brown sugar until crumbly to create a simple streusel topping.
Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the top of the dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and slightly crisp, and the bake is set in the center.
Allow the dish to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with more Nutella for extra decadence.
