For the pudding
5 cups 1 inch crusty bread cubes, enough to cover the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking pan (day old if you're thinking ahead)
2 cups whole milk
5 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup dark rum

1/2 stick butter
For the Sauce
1 cup (8oz) semi-sweet chocolate, chopped

1
Grease the inside of a 9x13 baking dish, and arrange the bread in the bottom. Nestle the bananas in with the bread, and sprinkle the walnuts and chocolate over the top

Beat the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, and rum together. Pour over the top of the bread and bananas. Push down any bread that sticks up to make sure everything is coated. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Allow to stand for 10-15 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan and add the brown sugar. Mix until a thick paste is formed, and drizzle the brown sugar mixture over the top of the pudding.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
