Ingredients Needed to Make the Slow Cooker Banana Heath Bread Pudding
Make your Slow Cooker Banana Heath Bread Pudding with these ingredients:
- French Bread. Cut your bread into small cubes. You need about eight cups of bread to prepare this pudding recipe. Use my French Bread recipe to make this.
- Milk. Add milk to your slow cooker with your homemade bread. The liquid helps create the perfect pudding-like consistency.
- Brown Sugar. Keep your pudding tasting sweet with brown sugar.
- Vanilla Extract. A teaspoon of vanilla extract adds a hint of extra flavor to this pudding.
- Heath Bits. Grab your Heath bar and chop it down into pieces before tossing those pieces into the slow cooker.
Besides these important ingredients, make sure you have four eggs to add to your slow cooker to create the Banana Heath Bread Pudding.
What to Serve With the Banana Heath Bread Pudding
What you serve with the bread pudding depends more on where you are serving it. If you are making it as a large family snack, then you might try adding a fruit smoothie with it, offering some make-ahead cookies or granola bars, adding a salty and sweet snack like Koolaid Popcorn, or simply serving it over ice cream.
If you want to have it for large family lunch, then try making my Hummus and loaded Greek hummus Bowl. If you prefer simple, then grab a frozen PB & J or make this homemaker uncrustables (you might even have these meals in the freezer already!). Of course, you know I have lots of make-ahead lunches and make-ahead meals for kids that would go great with this special treat.
