BANANA CHOCOLATE AND HAZELNUT BRIOCHE PUDDING
Description
This is one of my favourite desserts ever. Once you get a mouthful of crispy, golden, buttery brioche, a little morsel of caramelised banana, a creamy yet bitter dab of chocolate, and a crunchy hazelnut... oh boy.
Ingredients
- 20 grams butter for greasing the dish
- 200 grams brioche, cut into 3cm cubes
- 100 grams dark chocolate, buttons or chopped finely (you could use milk chocolate if you prefer)
- 3 ripe bananas, sliced
- 50 milliliters honey
- 150 milliliters heavy cream
- 300 milliliters whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 organic eggs, whisked with a fork
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 pinch seas salt
- 70 grams hazelnuts, roughly chopped
Directions
- Preheat oven to 180C fan bake. Grease a baking dish well with butter. Toss brioche with the chocolate and bananas, and then arrange evenly in the baking dish
- In a large bowl combine the honey, cream, milk, vanilla, eggs, cinnamon and salt. Whisk until combined.
- Pour this over the brioche cubes. Sprinkle over the chopped hazelnuts.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until the top is crisp and golden brown and the centre is cooked through but still moist. Serve warm with cream.
- Cover the pudding well with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to one week.
