Spread whipped cream on top of pie, then add a few additional sliced bananas. To make the whipped cream, add the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract to a mixer bowl fitted with the whisk attachment. Pour the filling into the pie, covering the sliced bananas, and cover with clear wrap pressed against the top so that it doesn’t get a film on top. Remove from heat and add butter and vanilla. Allow to boil for 2 1/2 minutes, stirring continuously.ĩ. Place pan back on the heat and bring to a light boil. Add a little bit of the milk mixture to the eggs, then add egg mixture to milk mixture, along with mashed bananas.Ĩ. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 2 minutes. Cook, stirring continuously, over medium-high heat until mixture begins to thicken and bubble.Ħ. Add the sugar, cornstarch and milk to a large saucepan and whisk together to combine.ĥ. Put the egg yolks in a small bowl and set aside.Ĥ. Add a row of thickly sliced bananas to the bottom of the pie crust.ģ. Once it’s done baking, set aside to cool.Ģ. Blind bake the pie crust in a 9 inch pie pan according to the package directions. 🙂 I guess you’ll just have to make it to see for yourself!ġ. The hubs threatened mutiny if I gave any away. Of course if you want to go the truly traditional route, you can just leave it out. 🙂 It adds some extra banana flavor to filling that we were big fans of. I’m serious when I tell you of our love for banana flavor and I’ve always found it funny that “banana” cream pie doesn’t have more banana flavor to it, so I added some. When the egg yolks are added to the filling, so are some mashed bananas. After adding the eggs, the filling is then further cooked and thickened before adding the butter and vanilla at the end. This is called “tempering” the eggs so that they warm up more slowly and don’t turn into hard boiled egg yolks when added to the hot mixture.
Then, a little bit of the milk mixture is added to the eggs, before adding the eggs to the milk mixture. First the cornstarch thickens the milk and sugar.
Vanilla and butter are added at the end for some additional flavor. Cornstarch is added and, along with the egg yolks, works to thicken the filling. Egg yolks, milk and sugar are the primary base.
For the traditional pie crust route, you’ll want to blind bake the pie fully since it won’t be baked further later.
#BANANA CREAM PIE WITH PUDDING CRACKER#
I personally think this is the way to go, but you could certainly swap it out for a graham cracker crust if you prefer. To start, I went with a traditional pie crust. The hubs and I will forever be banana fans, so this dessert was one that was not shared. There are just some classics that should never get left behind and this is one of them. Today I’m sharing a pretty traditional recipe. It’s something that I hope to not take for granted. It’s hard to even imagine the experience of so many – past and present. The sacrifice of those men and women, as well as their families, is huge. 🙂Īnd then of course there’s the reason we celebrate – remembering those who have served our country and given themselves for our freedom. I guess if you’re going to get caught in the rain, already being wet from swimming makes it not so bad. We did get caught in a good bit of rain out on the lake Sunday, but everyone made the best of it. We spent time with friends throughout the weekend and enjoyed the mostly nice weather. I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend and spent some nice time with friends and/or family.
