Piña Colada Baba
This an adaptation of my Grandmother Mimí's Pineapple Baba recipe that has been a favourite in our extended family for eons. I have perked it up with rum and a coconut cream to give it a Caribbean flavour. It is an unusual recipe as it uses breadcrumbs, not flour, and it will rise like a soufflé during baking and collapse as it cools. This gives it a spongy texture that readily soaks up all that juicy syrup. Be sure to chill the coconut cream overnight.
