Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place bread cubes in medium mixing bowl. In another mixing bowl, add Eggs, Milk, Sugar, Vanilla, Cinnamon, and Salt. Using wire whip, mix the liquid ingredients until well blended. Pour over bread cubes and mix well. Let sit for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Make sure all bread is soaked with the egg and milk mixture. Add bananas and pecans. Mix until just incorporated. Pour mixture into 8" or 9" square cake pan. Bake in oven checking after 30 minutes to see if custard has set and pudding is pulling away from sides of pan. Bake for up to 15 minutes more checking doneness every 5 minutes. Remove from oven to wire rack. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Divide onto small plates or bowls. Top with warm Southern Comfort Sauce. You may also serve with a side of Vanilla Ice Cream. This pudding is very rich and sweet. You can't stop eating it.
Tips:
- Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your bread pudding will be.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread pudding tough.
- Bake the bread pudding until it is set in the center. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
- Serve the bread pudding warm or at room temperature. It can be topped with whipped cream, ice cream, or a caramel sauce.
