Banana Bread Pudding
This banana bread pudding is made with soft sourdough bread, fresh bananas, crunchy pecans, and a decadent caramel sauce. It’s baked in the oven until it’s golden on top – it’s a seriously good dessert with a scoop of ice cream but also pulls double-duty for breakfast or brunch.
Traditionally, bread pudding is a dessert, but there’s no reason you can’t make it for breakfast or brunch like you would a French Toast. And this banana bread pudding, no matter which meal you make it for, is one you have to try.
It starts with sourdough bread, fresh bananas, and pecans, and you add a custard base that binds everything together while it bakes in the oven. The finishing touch is a simple caramel sauce drizzled over the top. Decadent, rich, and oh, so delicious – that’s what this banana bread pudding is all about.
