Ingredients
- 1 piece Ripe banana
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 piece Egg
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 2 cups Bread (stale or fresh, cubed)
- 1 teaspoon Butter (optional, for greasing)
Directions
Step 1
Lightly grease a microwave-safe bowl or mug with butter if desired.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth.
Step 3
Add the milk, egg, sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt to the mashed banana. Whisk until well combined.
Step 4
Fold the bread cubes into the banana mixture, ensuring all the pieces are coated. Let the mixture sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the liquid.
Step 5
Transfer the bread mixture into the prepared microwave-safe bowl or mug, pressing it down gently to pack it in evenly.
Step 6
Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes, or until the pudding has set and the edges are slightly firm. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave's power (check in 30-second intervals after 2 minutes).
Step 7
Carefully remove the bowl or mug from the microwave (it will be hot) and let it cool for 1-2 minutes.
Step 8
Serve warm as-is or topped with whipped cream, a drizzle of honey, or a scoop of ice cream for extra indulgence.
