Ready to help reduce food waste from home? Have some food leftovers to put to use? Our easy and simple banana bread and butter recipe turns those ripe bananas into a deliciously moist pudding to enjoy with the family.

Instructions

Step 1

For the Bread and butter pudding, preheat your oven to 175°C/155°C fan/Gas mark 4, then grease a 20cm ovenproof dish or baking tin.

Step 2

Mix your eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, mashed banana and cinnamon together in a large bowl until smooth.

Step 3

Pop your cubed bread, sliced bananas and chocolate chips into the large bowl, folding them into the mixture.

Step 4

Pour your mixture into a prepared tin, then bake for 1 hour. Check on your pudding halfway through - if you believe the top is getting too dark, cover it with a sheet of tinfoil.

Step 5

Once your hour is up, remove your pudding from the oven (you can test if it's ready by popping a skewer into the pudding - if it comes out clean, it's ready). Serve with your delicious homemade custard or some ice cream, and enjoy!

Step 6

For the Custard, pop your egg yolks and sugar into a bowl, then whisk together. Once well-mixed, add your cornflour and whisk again until the mixture is smooth.

Step 7

Pour your Arla Cravendale milk into a pan and stir over medium heat until it starts to bubble. Then add the hot milk to the yolk mixture a little at a time, whisking as you go.

Step 8

Clean out your milk saucepan, then return the mixture to the cleaned pan. Slowly bring to a simmer, stirring with a wooden spoon for around 2 mins, until it has thickened.

Step 9

Add your vanilla extract to the pan and stir. Then, strain the warm custard through a sieve into a jug and serve alongside your banana bread and butter pudding!

Enjoy!
