- Preheat oven to 350F.

BANANAS FOSTER BREAD PUDDING
Here is a nod both to the original bananas Foster at Brennan's restaurant in the French Quarter of New Orleans and to the luxe version of bananas baba au rhum that the Louisiana chef Allison Vines-Rushing once cooked at Jack's Luxury Oyster Bar in the East Village. Silky and rich, deep with the flavors of bananas, rum and custard, it is not much work to make, and pays off in incredible flavor. Do not be afraid to use an even darker sugar than the brown called for in the recipe, though molasses may be a step too far. You are looking for a deep caramel hue and flavor in the sauce, to complement the rum and the fruit. (And if you're looking to try the original, make our bananas foster recipe.)

Bread Pudding is a famous dessert in the French Quarter of New Orleans. This version is from dickiebrennanssteakhouse.com. I haven't made this before and it sure sounds like a lot of bread to fit into that size pan - but they're famous for it and I'm not - so hopefully this works well. :D

Tips for Making Banana Foster Bread Pudding:
- Choose ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your bread pudding will be.
- Use a good quality bread: A sturdy bread, such as French bread or challah, will hold up well in the bread pudding.

- Bake the bread pudding in a water bath: This will help to prevent the bread pudding from becoming dry.
- Let the bread pudding cool before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the bread pudding to set.
