BANANA BRIOCHE BREAD PUDDING (no sugar!)

Author Notes: Bread pudding is my husband's favorite dessert. He loves bananas too so I created a pudding just for him. Bananas and then more banana. He is careful about his sugar intake so I added NO sugar to this recipe! The bananas are so sweet and the cinnamon and one whole tablespoon of vanilla so fragrant that there is no need for any sugar. The addition of sliced almonds gives the pudding a little final crunch. - dymnyno

Yum! So smart to use the banana and raisin as a sweetner too - this would make a great breakfast bread pudding too! Or a brunch one. With mimosas. :-)
