Banana Bread Pudding from Boma at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge


Yield: 12 servings.

12 croissants (or any bread with high butter content, such as brioche or challah)
1 quart milk
1 quart heavy cream
13 eggs
1 pound, 3 ounces granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
8 whole bananas, sliced
6 ounces butter, melted

1. Heat oven to 320 F. Cut bread into cubes. Place them in a 10-inch round, 2-inch deep baking pan. Slice bananas. Mix with the bread.
2. Prepare custard by mixing the eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, milk and heavy cream. Pour custard over bread, making sure bread is soaked. Brush top with melted butter. Place baking dish on a large jellyroll pan. Fill jellyroll pan with water to create a gentle water bath while the pudding bakes.
3. Bake for 1 hour, 15 minutes. Top will be golden, and skewer inserted into the pudding should come out clean.

Margie, I think I love you!! I just had this last week while at Boma and immediately fell in love with it. It was a HUGE slice of heaven. Do you know if the vanilla sauce served with it is a "standard sauce" or do they do somethiing special to that as well?
