Add bananas, turning until bananas soften and brown. Add liqueur and blend. Carefully add rum. Shake pan to warm rum and flame pan, basting bananas until flame dies, cool. Whisk eggs, 1/2 cup brown sugar, cream, milk, and vanilla in bowl. Add banana mixture and bread, stir to blend. Pour into baking dish, bake at 350 degrees until firm, 50-60 mins. Cool 20 mins. Sauce: Combine sugar, water, and lemon juice in pan, stirring over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Boil without stirring until a deep amber color, 2-3 mins, watch so it doesn't burn. Add cream, whisk to combine, remove from heat. Add milk, 2 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency. Remove from heat and cool before serving. Sauce thickens as it cools. Top pudding with a scoop of ice cream, drizzle with caramel sauce, serve.
