Eggless bread pudding recipe with banana and chocolate chips, a delicious eggless dessert for bread pudding lovers. The recipe is quite easy to adapt and you can make it in less than 30 mins. What’s not to love?
This bread pudding recipe happened quite randomly actually. I was chatting with my friend SJ and she was telling me how her mom was making bread pudding for her and her son. I asked for the recipe, she typed it out to me and I went into my kitchen soon after. An hour later, I had some fragrant and delicious looking bread pudding hot out of the oven. TH and I dug in soon after and we loved it!
I would, however, do a couple of things different next time. Increase the amount of chocolate chips, and not add the coconut on top. Don’t get me wrong, I am a Malayali and coconut is totally my thing but I didn’t feel like it went well on this bread pudding. I also adapted her recipe which involved one egg in the custard base to an eggless version with cornflour (corn starch) so the rest of it was perfect to me.Â

Eggless Bread Pudding Recipe with Banana & Choc Chips
Ingredients
- 5-6 slices of bread you can use any kind

Instructions

- In a microwave-safe bowl, add the milk, butter, cornflour, sugar, and vanilla

- Cut each bread slice into 6 small squares
- Arrange one layer on the greased tray
- Pour half the milk mixture evenly over the bread pieces
- Arrange one layer of sliced bananas over this
- Then add some almond flakes on top followed by the chocolate chips (I used larger-sized chocolate chunks)
- Repeat the bread pieces and pour the rest of the milk mixture over it
- Add the remaining almond flakes and sprinkle the grated coconut (if using) and 2 tsp sugar (if using) over this
- Bake in the pre-heated oven for 20-25 minutes. The top will turn a golden brown and the custard will be cooked by then
- Bread pudding can be served warm or chilled
- Cool completely before refrigerating if you prefer the chilled version

Can I use 3tbsp flour if I don’t have cornstarch or cornflour?
no ren, regular flour is not a good substitute for cornflour in this recipe
I love puddings that have no eggs but has chocolate. Why? Because that s what the daughter likes. Absolutely delicious. I would not add coconut though because I m too loyal to banana. I m making this asap
