Michael Voltaggio’s Banana Bread Pudding

Save room for dessert! Chef Michael Voltaggio’s riff on the famous banana pudding from Wilber’s Barbecue & Restaurant in Goldsboro, North Carolina, combines vanilla wafers and bread cubes with a creamy banana custard. Then the rich pudding is baked until golden brown and topped with vanilla wafer ice cream. This is down-home comfort food at its finest.
