Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix cherries and rum in a small bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes. Mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons of the sugar mixture.
- Mix eggs, remaining sugar mixture, 2 teaspoons of vanilla, and salt in a large bowl with a wire whisk until well blended. Stir in milk until well blended. Add bread cubes and bananas; toss to coat well. Pour into a greased 13x9-inch baking dish. Sprinkle cherries evenly over top. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of the reserved sugar mixture.
- Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool slightly on a wire rack.
- Meanwhile, beat cream, remaining 1/4 cup sugar mixture, and 1 teaspoon vanilla in a medium bowl with an electric mixer just until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Serve warm bread pudding with whipped cream.
