    List of Ingredients




    Banana Bread Pudding

    2 Tablespoons butter (30 ml)
    4 - 5 peeled and thickly sliced bananas
    4 eggs
    2 cups half+half or heavy cream (500 ml)
    1/4 cup packed brown sugar (60 ml)
    1/4 cup dark rum (60 ml), optional
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5 ml)
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (2 ml)
    1/2 pound sliced egg or white bread or brioche (225 g)
    1/4 cup raisins (60 ml)
    rum sauce, optional
    vanilla ice cream, optional

    Heat the butter in a skillet over moderate heat and
    saute the bananas until lightly browned, about 3
    minutes. Set aside.
    Whisk together the eggs, half+half, brown sugar,
    optional rum, vanilla, and cinnamon in a mixing bowl.
    Layer 1/3rd of the bread slices in a greased 9x5 inch
    (23x12 cm) baking dish.
    Top with 1/2 the bananas and raisins.
    Pour 1/3rd of the egg mixture over all.
    Repeat with another layer of bread, bananas, raisins,
    and egg mixture; and finish with a final layer of bread
    and egg mixture.
    Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (180C) oven until
    firm to the touch, 30 to 40 minutes.
    Serve warm, chilled, or at room temperature, topped
    with rum sauce and/or vanilla ice cream if desired. Serves 6 to 8.
