This Chocolate Banana Peanut Butter Microwave Bread Pudding for one is about as easy as it gets! Make it in a mug or ramekin.
This sweet Chocolate Banana Peanut Butter Microwave Bread Pudding is perfect for when you don’t feel like baking and you want a small portion. Even though this vegan bread pudding is sweet and listed in my dessert category, it would be perfect for brunch as well.
A mix of banana, peanut butter, and almond milk make the bread all soft and gooey, just what you’d expect in a bread pudding.
Chocolate chips are sprinkled throughout creating pockets of chocolaty goodness. Slices of banana are layered in between cubes of bread creating more gooey sweetness.
What can I say? I am in love with this dessert.
It’s just as easy as my first vegan bread pudding, but maybe better since it has more chocolate and the addition of banana.

Tips For Making Chocolate Banana Peanut Butter Microwave Bread Pudding
- You may want to mix the banana, peanut butter, and almond milk without sweetener first. If your banana is riper than mine, you may not need maple syrup.
- Let the bread sit for 10-15 minutes in the banana peanut butter mixture before heating it up so that the bread soaks up the liquid. Even though gluten free bread is quite dense, it soaks up a lot of liquid.
- If you’re a fan of almond butter, use that instead.
- Remember that all microwaves are different. You may need more or less time than I did.
- If you want to make several bread puddings at once, I would suggest placing the done ones (in their ramekins) on a baking sheet. Then put them in the oven at a low temperature to keep them warm while you make each one.

I love these ramekins. They are great for single serving cakes and bread puddings. They are perfect for serving dips. They are microwave, oven dishwasher, and freezer safe.
