1¼ pounds Manzano Bananas or Red Bananas, ripe
1 cup Sugar
1 cup Coconut Milk
½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
2 tablespoons Butter, melted
7 slices Sandwich Bread
Slice the bananas diagonally and sprinkle with half the sugar. Cook the remaining sugar in coconut milk until dissolved, then add the vanilla. Remove the crusts from the bread, and soak the bread in the sweetened coconut milk.
Butter a 12 inch non stick pan. Arrange a layer of banana on the bottom of the pan. Cover with a layer of bread, then another layer of banana, another layer of bread, and so on, finishing with a layer of bananas.
Drizzle the remaining butter over the top, then cover with foil and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Let rest for approximately 12 hours before cutting.
