Ingredients
- 2 bananas roughly diced into 2cm chunks
- 55g unsalted butter, softened
- 30g toasted walnuts, roughly chopped
- 55g dark chocolate chips
- icing sugar :for dusting
- 10 thick slices of white bread, crusts cut off 200g caster sugar
- 220ml milk
- 625ml double cream
- 2 vanilla pods or a few drops of vanilla essence 8 egg yolks
- butter :for greasing
Method
- Preheat the oven to 175°C and grease a baking dish with butter
- Pour the milk and cream into a saucepan
- Split the vanilla pods and place them in the saucepan
- If using vanilla essence add this to the milk and cream
- Bring to the boil, take off the heat and allow to cool
- In a bowl whisk the egg yolks and sugar, then using a sieve strain the cream and milk into the eggs and sugar, stirring continuously
- Butter the slices of bread and cut into four triangles
- In the baking dish, starting at one end, place three triangles of bread, then sprinkle with some banana, walnuts and chocolate drops
- Repeat this process until all of the bread, bananas, walnuts and chocolate chips are used up
- Carefully pour over the custard
- Leave to stand for 20 minutes pushing down on the bread occasionally
- The idea is for the bread to soak up the custard
- Place the baking dish in a larger baking tray half filled with boiling water and place in the oven for 30 minutes until cooked but with a slight wobble
- Do not allow the custard to overcook otherwise it will scramble
- Leave to rest for ten minutes
- Dust with icing sugar before serving
