Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by greasing the interior of your crockpot with cooking spray or butter to ensure that your Irresistible Crockpot Banana Bread Pudding won't stick.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, take your ripe bananas and mash them until they reach a smooth consistency.
  3. Next, crack in a couple of large eggs into the bowl with the mashed bananas and beat them together until well incorporated.
  4. Stir in the whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until it's smooth and well-blended.
  5. Gently fold in the cubed day-old bread, ensuring each piece is well-coated with the banana mixture.
  6. Pour the finished mixture into the prepared crockpot and spread it evenly across the bottom.
  7. Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 3-4 hours or on high for 1.5-2 hours.
  8. When the cooking time is near completion, check the doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of your banana bread pudding.
  9. Allow your Irresistible Crockpot Banana Bread Pudding to cool for about 10-15 minutes before serving.
