The raw ingredients for Pinch of Nom's Banana Bread Pudding are laid out on a kitchen counter, ready to begin baking.

For the full list of ingredients and comprehensive instructions, please see the recipe card below. Before you scroll, there’s important stuff in the blurb!

Warming, sweet AND spicy, this Banana Bread Pudding is like a hug in a bowl – especially when you top it with a good glug of homemade custard! We’ve stirred in mixed spice and dried sultanas to give the flavours a boost.

The trick is to keep an eye on your bake, as you don’t want it to dry out like a traditional banana bread. This one needs to keep its moisture so it has that delightfully satisfying pudding-like texture.

If you don’t fancy custard, you can always try it with a dollop of fat-free yoghurt, or a scoop of low-calorie vanilla ice cream. No matter what, you’ll be in pudding heaven! For more banana-based recipe inspiration, take a scroll through our blog by tapping here.

What diets is this Banana Bread Pudding suitable for?

This Banana Bread Pudding recipe is suitable for dairy-free and vegetarian diets.

You can also make this bake gluten-free by using gluten-free self-raising flour.

Do you need any special ingredients to make Banana Bread Pudding?

While you might have added powdered sweetener to teas or coffees, granulated sweetener is used a bit differently. It has larger ‘crystals’, making it better to use as a like-for-like swap for sugar – without the calories!

We usually pick up Canderel Sugarly, but any brand should be fine. We’d recommend looking out for ‘granulated’ or ‘bakes like sugar’ on the packaging.

Hints & Tips

Below we added some of our communities most common hints and tips. We hope you find them useful.

I used some frozen bananas that I let thaw and it tasted just the same as if they had been fresh
Mixed spice
I didn’t have any mixed spice so used half teaspoon each of ground cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger
This is so easy to make and very light to eat
Next time I would add more bananas for more flavour. I also added a few sultanas (as I had them)

Super fluffy! I didn’t add much sweetener but it wasn’t bad because I topped it with a little drizzle of honey and it was fantastic. Would definitely make this again!

Eek, just tried both banana bread recipes and both looked great but collapsed after they were taken out of the oven. I usually hand mix but used a mixer for these. Could this have created extra moisture (I’ve seen this to be a reason for banana bread collapse elsewhere). I’ve also noticed sadly anyone who has has a problem with the recipes doesn’t seem to have had a reply. I’m new to Nom and loving the recipes but would like to get this one right if I can. Thank you.

    Hi Marian,

    You may find that this banana bread sinks a little in the middle but it shouldn’t completely collapse. Be sure not to open the oven door until the cooking time is up. You could also try cooking it a little longer, and turning it upside down once it comes out of the oven and cool on a wire rack.

    Hope that helps!
