1 loaf French bread, diced
8 eggs
2 cups cream
3/4 cups sugar
1/2 stick butter, melted
1 Tbs. vanilla
1 cup mango, diced
2 medium bananas, sliced
1/2 cup shredded coconut, toasted
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
Preparation:
Combine eggs, cream, melted butter, vanilla and sugar; mix well. Stir in diced bread until all the mixture is absorbed into the bread; set aside while you dice the fruits. Stir in mango, bananas, coconut and almonds. Pour mixture into a sprayed 9" by 9" deep baking dish. Bake in preheated 375-degree oven for approximately 45 minutes, until golden brown.
Serve warm with Mango Cream Sauce.
Ingredients for Mango Cream Sauce:
2 cups vanilla ice cream, melted
1 cup mango, diced
1 vanilla bean, inside only
Preparation:
Mix all ingredients in a blender until smooth. Drizzle over the bread pudding.
Yield: 6 to 9 servings
Chef's Notes:
- If you can't get fresh mango, use canned -- it's a great substitute.
- Try adding 1/4 cup sugar, sprinkled on the top during the last 15 minutes of baking.
- This pudding is great with many different fruits. Try substituting peach for the mango.
