Recipe Method

1.  Lightly grease a medium oven-dish.
2. Peel away and discard the paper casing from the banana loaf. Slice the banana loaf in half down the length, then into 1 cm slices and layer them in overlapping rows, into the oven dish.
3. Tuck the banana slices and sweets deeply in amongst the rows of banana loaf.
4. In a bowl, combine the custard, egg and cream using a hand-whisk or fork.
5. Pour this over and in-between the oven-dish ingredients, and set aside so it can settle while the oven heats up to the required temperature of 190 º C.
6. Cover lightly with a sheet of foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil, and bake a further 10 minutes until the dessert is bubbling and the protruding banana loaf tips are crusty. Serve while very warm.
