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
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with the unsalted butter.
Step 2
Slice the ripe bananas and set aside. Cut the day-old bread into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Step 4
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.
Step 5
Transfer the bread and custard mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Step 6
Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes, giving the bread cubes time to absorb the custard.
Step 7
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.
Step 8
Remove the bread pudding from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for extra indulgence.
