Bread Pudding

Praline Crumble

Bananas Foster Sauce

Method

Bread Pudding

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cut the day-old bread into cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine and Soak

    Pour the milk mixture over the bread cubes. Gently fold to combine and ensure all bread is soaked. Let it sit for about 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Transfer the bread mixture into a greased baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

Praline Crumble

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, flour, and chopped pecans. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  2. 6

    Bake the Crumble

    Spread the crumble mixture evenly on a baking sheet and bake in the same oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove and let cool.

Bananas Foster Sauce

  1. 7

    Make the Sauce

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Stir in the brown sugar and cook until dissolved.

  2. 8

    Add Bananas and Rum

    Add the sliced bananas and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Carefully add the dark rum and let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off.

  3. 9

    Finish with Vanilla

    Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Set aside until ready to serve.
