The recipe specifies that this should be served with cream sauce but does not give the recipe for that. I suggested sweetened cream or warm custard.
Ingredients:
2 cups warm milk
1 cup cake crumbs (from any yellow cake such as a sponge cake)
1/2 cup mashed banana
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs, lightly beaten
Directions:
1. Buy one those slabs of un-iced cake in a supermarket for this.
2. Pour the warm milk over the cake crumbs and leave for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat oven to 350 deg F/180 deg. Celsius.
4. Whisk milk mixture to make sure there are no clumps. You could put it in a processor to get a really smooth mixture.
5. Add all the other ingredients to the milk mixture.
6. Mix well, and pour into either greased individual bowls, or into a large greased oven dish.
7. Place the bowl(s) in a pan with water (which comes about 1/3 up the sides) and bake about 40 minutes or until set.
8. Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes.
9. Turn out and serve with a cream or butter sauce. (Whatever that means. I copied this from Cook and Enjoy It , the South African cooking bible!).
