Method
Prepare Bread Pudding
Preheat the Oven
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the Bread
Cut the French bread into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Mix Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Combine Mixtures
Pour the wet mixture over the bread cubes, gently folding to ensure all pieces are coated. Let it sit for 10 minutes to absorb.
Bake the Pudding
Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until golden brown and set in the center.
Sauté Bananas
Slice the Bananas
Peel and slice the ripe bananas into half-moon shapes.
Sauté the Bananas
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the sliced bananas, brown sugar, banana liqueur, and bourbon. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring gently until the bananas are caramelized and coated in the sauce.
Assemble and Serve
Serve the Bread Pudding
Once the bread pudding is baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes.
Top with Bananas
Spoon the sautéed banana mixture over the warm bread pudding.
Add Toppings
Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
