How to Make Banana Coconut Bread Pudding With Rum Sauce

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 4 cups cubed stale bread, 4 large eggs, 3 ripe mashed bananas, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, 1 cup shredded coconut, 1/2 cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Stir until well combined. Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
  4. Pour the mixture into a greased 9x9 inch baking pan.
  5. Evenly sprinkle 1/2 cup chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts recommended) over the top.
  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. While the pudding bakes, prepare the rum sauce:
  8. In a medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour until smooth.
  9. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 cup heavy cream, and 1/2 cup milk.
  10. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, stirring frequently.
  11. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of dark rum (optional).
  12. Serve the warm bread pudding generously drizzled with the rum sauce. Enjoy!
