Recipe monday

This recipe monday is for a divine banana and raisin bread pudding.

My grandmother used to make bread puddings when I was a kid, hers was always made with raisins.

I added bananas to mine, just think the sweet and warm banana gives such an amazing flavor to the dish.

At the end, just before serving I drizzle the whole pudding with caramel sauce. Its divine.

Enjoy!

Let the mixture stand 30 minutes to absorb all the liquid.

I've been thinking about making bread pudding for a while now - the concept is a bit like "arme riddere", isn't it? Maybe I should have some friends over and give it a try... It looks super delicious in the photo!

Bread pudding makes me think of 'brood pap' and 'hondje eigenwijs' one of the Golden Books of my childhood. Nothing like this pudding, but yummy nevertheless. This looks divine. Will have to come up with a way to have some old bread, we eat everything in our manger.
