Note:
- You want to have super ripe bananas when making this pudding similar to banana bread, as it adds all that natural sweetness to the final dish
- Use a day old brioche and cut it into small cubes. You can also use challah or croissants in this recipe. A day-old bread is better at soaking all that custard to make this dessert rich
