Delicious!! Definately needs ice cream and a topping (butter, brown sugar, and liquor), otherwise it does taste like mushy banana bread. Would definately make again! YUM!

The directions were very easy to follow, but I agree with another member who said their bananas turned out purple, and that it just ended up tasting like mushy banana bread. It did not look appetizing at all.

This is an excellent ice cream topper! As for pudding -- maybe it's because it is not cooked like a typical bread pudding, but in now way would I call this pudding.

Yummy yummy yummy!! This was soo soo good I wish I had hidden the leftovers from my family! I made it on Sunday night for dessert to go with the bananas foster II recipe from this site & a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Both were awesome, but honeslty I think it was overkill to make both as they were both so good that it was hard to enjoy them indivdually. Luckily I had about half a tray left and brought a slice (okay fine a huge chunk!) to work for breakfast the next day. HEAVEN!! By the tiem I got home i wanted another slice but sadly my family had gobbled it up. You MUST try this recipe!! *The only thing I changed was using rum instead of banana liquor as I wanted to keep the cost down and already had rum on hand.

Amazing. Since it was for two people I halved the recipe. I used soymilk instead of cream (vegetarian) and used Cream sherry instead of banana liquor. Perfect. And I am not even a big fan of bananas!

I am a lover of Bread Puddings and this was wonderful...but you have to like the flavor of Banannas! I made it for our Super Bowl/Madis Gras party and it was a HUGE hit! I made a sauce to serve ontop of each serving (b.sugar, butter, bannana liquor, pecans and milk). We also served it warm with a scoop of vanilla iceream. Will make it again!

I don't usually prefer bananas, but this recipe certainly makes me a fan! I was skeptical of a banana dessert, so I gave it a test run by cutting the recipe down to yield 5 servings. I cut a small loaf of french bread into about 1 inch cubes and used a banana flavored rum. I poured the mixture into a small loaf pan and threw it into the toaster oven. I did also find that I didn't need to keep it in there for more than 60 minutes, but that's probably more because I was baking a smaller portion. I pushed the toast button for the last few minutes to make the top crispier, which I thought complemented the bread pudding texture wonderfully! I followed the other reviewer's suggestion and also made the sauce (I used the recipe from Bananas Foster II submitted by Buttermebread) which was phenomenal drizzled over the pudding and vanilla ice cream! Excellent and definitely a keeper! Will be making the whole recipe and sharing the joy with others!

OUTSTANDING! As suggested, I made the sauce with brown sugar, butter and I added an additional 1/2 cup of the banana liquer - pour over a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of this Banana Fosters Pudding (which had the consistency of bread pudding) and the family was in heaven. It ALL went!
