Tried this as a dessert after dinner and it was so good!! The bottom was slightly undercooked but it made it taste like banana bread pudding instead :)
Yummy recipe! Moist and delicious. I used honey because that’s all I had. It still turned out good but would’ve probably tasted better with maple syrup. Will try that next time! Thank you for the recipe.
