Fruit Bread and Banana Pudding

Prep Time1 hour 5 minutes
Cook Time30 minutes
Total Time1 hour 35 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 4 slices fruit bread
  • 30 g unsalted butter
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 3 medium eggs
  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 200 ml single cream room temperature
  • 200 ml milk semi-skimmed or whole milk, room temperature
  • 50 g raisins

Instructions

  • Grease a medium-sized dish with some of the butter and spread the rest over the fruit bread.
  • Cut each slice of the fruit bread into triangles and lay evenly in the bottom of the dish.
  • Drizzle over the maple syrup.
  • Beat the eggs in a bowl and add the cream and milk. Beat well
  • Slice the bananas into 2cm chunks and lay over the bread. Evenly shake over the raisins.
  • Pour all of the egg mixture slowly over the bananas, pushing down gently as you pour.
  • Leave to stand at room temperature for about half an hour.
  • Push the top gently before placing in a moderate oven, 180C Gas Mark for approximately 30 minutes until just set. The custard carries on cooking for a while and the bread absorbs the moisture, so be careful not to overcook unless you prefer a more solid pudding.
  • Serve drizzled with maple syrup and pouring cream.
