BREAD PUDDING
1 loaf brioche bread
2 c milk
2 c heavy cream
4 eggs
4 egg yolks
1 c sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
SAUCE
8 oz bacon, rendered in oven until crispy
1/2 lb butter
1/2 lb dark brown sugar
2 c maple syrup
2 c heavy cream
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
bananas, sliced

Steps:

  • 1. Cut the crust off brioche. Cut brioche into 1-inch cubes.
  • 2. Spread them in a shallow pan and set aside. Mix the remaining ingredients, using an immersion blender.
  • 3. Strain the mixture and pour over the brioche, mixing well. Cover in plastic and refrigerate overnight.
  • 4. Grease a square pan and lightly sprinkle the bottom with sugar. Place the brioche mixture into the pan in an even layer, about 1½ inches thick. Sprinkle the top with sugar. Bake in 350° oven for 20 to 30 minutes, until golden brown.
  • 5. SAUCE: In a 3-qt. saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it becomes light brown. Whisk the brown sugar, maple syrup and heavy cream into the butter and bring to a boil. Add the bacon and vanilla extract.
  • 6. Using an immersion blender, mix sauce until bacon is in small pieces. Strain the sauce. To serve, cut the bread pudding into squares or rectangles. Top with a layer of fresh banana slices and sprinkle a thin layer of sugar on top. Use a torch on the dish to caramelize the sugar. Cover with sauce.

The bread pudding was a bit dry. I think I'll add more milk or cream next time.

The crème anglaise is the perfect finishing touch. It's rich and creamy, and it pairs perfectly with the bread pudding.
