This southen spin dish is baked and needs to be added to your collection. I used this gooey dessert in a mens bake off. So serve it hot and grab some vanilla icec cream!
Ingredients
- Filling: I usually double this. See below shopping list
- 9 tablespoons unsalted butter shopping list
- 1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar shopping list
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon shopping list
- 6 firm-ripe bananas, peeled and cut crosswise into 3/4-inch thick slices shopping list
- 1/4 cup banana liqueur shopping list
- 1/2 cup dark rum shopping list
- bread mixture: Not doubled shopping list
- 4 large eggs, lightly beaten shopping list
- 3 cups heavy cream shopping list
- 1 cup milk shopping list
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract shopping list
- Pinch salt shopping list
- 6 cups (1/2-inch cubes) 1 DAY OLD French bread ( 1 loaf is good) shopping list
How to make it
- I usually double the filling because I use half in the dish and the other half I simmer down to a thick sauce to pour on top. Or you can use chocolate, caramel, or whatever. The sauce gets heavy in the pan during the flambe, so I would make it two times ( not all at once!)
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 10 by 14-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of the butter and set aside.
- .Melt the remaining 8 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1 cup of the brown sugar and the cinnamon and cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes.
- Add the bananas and cook on both sides, turning, until the bananas start to soften and brown, about 3 minutes.
- Add the banana liqueur and stir to blend. Carefully add the rum and shake the pan back and forth to warm the rum and flame the pan. (Or, off the heat, carefully ignite the rum with a match and return to the heat.) Shake the pan back and forth, basting the bananas, until the flame dies. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- Whisk together the eggs, remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar, the cream, milk, and vanilla in a large bowl.
- Add the cooled banana mixture and bread and stir to blend thoroughly.
- Pour into the prepared baking dish and bake until firm, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes.
