This bread pudding from Belize is my absolute favorite. It’s a fantastic dish for a dinner party because it’s so flavorful and aromatic. With vanilla ice cream, serve warm.

Reviews
This recipe is delicious. It tastes just like you’d get in the shops in Belize. I love to add 2 ripe plantains or bananas to mine to make it more Caribbean.
Will def make again. I soaked the bread in the milk mixture until it soaked before transferring it to a pan.
My son’s favorite dessert. Decadent Home cooking with the Caribbean flair
This just delicious! I found it too sweet so next time I will omit the sugar.
