How to Make Banana Bread Bread Pudding

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. Slice your banana bread into 1-inch thick slices. Arrange half of the slices in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  3. Top the bread layer with 1 cup of chopped fresh bananas.
  4. Arrange the remaining banana bread slices over the bananas.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
  6. Pour the custard mixture evenly over the banana bread layers, ensuring all slices are moistened.
  7. Let the pudding sit for 15-20 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the custard.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the pudding is set and golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  9. Let the bread pudding cool slightly before serving. Dust with powdered sugar (optional). Enjoy!
