How to make Banana Bread Pudding

Banana Purée

  1. Step 1

    Slice the bananas into rounds. Set aside a few slices for garnish.

  2. Step 2

    In a skillet, heat the butter and add the banana slices with a sprinkle of cinnamon.

  3. Step 3

    Cook for a few minutes until the bananas take on a caramelized color.

Pudding

  1. Step 1

    Place the caramelized bananas in a blender along with the remaining ingredients. Blend until smooth and creamy.

  2. Step 2

    Grease a loaf pan (rectangular) with butter and line the bottom with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides to make it easier to remove the pudding later.

  3. Step 3

    Pour the blended mixture into the prepared pan.

  4. Step 4

    Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for approximately 45 minutes.

To Serve

  1. Step 1

    Unmold the pudding while still warm and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

  2. Step 2

    Sprinkle with cinnamon and garnish with the reserved caramelized banana slices.
