Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups day-old bread (French or brioche)
- 3 ripe bananas
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 eggs
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing the dish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter.
Cut the day-old bread into 1-inch cubes and place them in the prepared baking dish.
Peel and slice the bananas into 1/4-inch rounds, then scatter them evenly over the bread cubes.
Sprinkle the white chocolate chips evenly over the bread and banana mixture.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Pour the custard mixture evenly over the bread, bananas, and white chocolate in the baking dish. Press down gently with the back of a spoon to ensure all the bread absorbs the liquid.
Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to allow the bread to fully soak up the custard.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with a drizzle of caramel sauce or a dollop of whipped cream.
