Ingredients:
1/2 c. butter, cubed
2/3 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 c. heavy whipping cream
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground allspice
1/4 c. chopped pecans, optional
3 large bananas, sliced
12 sliced egg bread or challah (about 3/4 lb.)
1 1/2 c. 2% milk
3 eggs
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Directions:
Place butter in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave, covered, for 30-45 seconds or until melted.  Stir in brown sugar, heavy whipping cream, cinnamon, allspice and, if desired, pecans.  Add bananas; toss gently to coat.

Transfer to an ungreased 9x13 baking dish.  Arrange bread over top, trimming to fit as necessary.

Place remaining ingredients in a blender; process just until blended.  Pour over bread.  Refrigerate, covered, 8 hours or overnight.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Meanwhile, remove baking dish from refrigerator.  Bake, uncovered, 35-40 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.  Let stand 5-10 minutes.  Invert to serve.
