CHOCOLATE BANANA BREAD PUDDING



Chocolate Banana Bread Pudding image

Toronto pastry chef Anna Olsen includes this in her own Christmas Eve traditions! I like it because its actually a "double duty" recipe ........ I used half the banana bread on its own, then used the other half to make half the bread pudding. You could use your own favourite banana bread recipe - or even a store bought banana bread if you're really pushed for time. I served it warm with frozen vanilla yogurt but I actually preferred it the next day at room temperature.

HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE-BANANA PUDDING



Homemade Chocolate-Banana Pudding image

My family, from East Texas, only made banana pudding with chocolate pudding. I did not taste it made with vanilla pudding until after I got married. I converted my wife!

Provided by rnneal

Time 35m

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups whole milk
4 (1 ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate
1 ½ cups white sugar
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
4 large egg yolks, beaten
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 (11 ounce) box vanilla wafer cookies
3 medium bananas, sliced, or to taste

Steps:

  • Combine milk and chocolate in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted and mixture is hot, about 5 minutes.
  • Mix sugar, flour, and salt together in a bowl. Add some of the hot liquid to the dry ingredients; mix well. Pour dry ingredients into the double boiler and stir well. Cover and cook over a rolling boil, stirring often, until thickened, about 15 minutes.
  • Pour some of the hot mixture into the beaten egg yolks, whisking quickly to avoid scrambling the eggs. Pour the mixture back into the double boiler and whisk to combine. Whisk in butter and vanilla.
  • Line the bottom of a serving bowl with wafer cookies. Pour in some of the pudding to cover and top with sliced bananas. Repeat layers until all of the pudding is gone, ending with bananas on top.
