Banana Egg Nog Bread Pudding

I had a meeting at my house last night and dreamed up this banana egg nog bread pudding to serve that was super easy and amazingly delicious! You can put this in a casserole dish, but I liked serving individual cups baked in muffin tins. 4 large eggs 1 C whole milk 1C egg nog ¼ cup brown sugar 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 tsp kosher salt 6 cups cubed challah bread (½ loaf) 5 ripe bananas, peeled and cut into coins 3 Tb white sugar Mix first 6 ingredients together in a bowl. Add bread, mix together, and put in refrigerator until bread has soaked in all of the liquid (a couple of hours). Spray muffin tins very well. Add 3 sliced bananas and 1 scoop of bread mixture then repeat ending with bread mixture. (My muffin tins were very full and close to overflowing). Bake for 20 minutes at 350 then sprinkle with sugar and put back in for another 15 minutes or until they are golden brown and liquid has been cooked through. I used Mrs. Richardsons…

Indoor S’mores

A cold dreary day calls for Indoor S’mores for dessert tonight! In an oven proof dish bake chocolate chips or Hershey bars at 300 until melted. Top with Marshmallows and chopped up Heath bars and broil or set at 500 for one minute.

Peach & Blackberry Galette

Ushering in summer with this fast and delicious Peach and Blackberry Galette. This is so easy you could pull it together tonight! Store bought pie crust (of course I love TJ pie crust) I don’t roll it out at all. I lay it out and add fruit. Mix 3 cups of sliced peaches, nectarines, berries or your favorite fruit add… 1/2 C Sugar 1 lemon zested 1 lemon juiced 3 TB cornstarch Mix and let sit for a couple of hours (or not). Add fruit to center of the pie crust leaving a 1 inch border. Fold crust around fruit and brush with egg wash. Bake or Traeger (AMAZING) on 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes. I slightly under cook mine so it’s soft and not crunchy. Happy Memorial Day!!
