Time 2h45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups mini vanilla wafer cookies
3 large bananas, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices (about 3 cups)
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/4 cup all purpose flour
1 cup whole milk, divided
3 large egg yolks
2 tsp unsalted butter
Pinch of salt
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1-2 large bananas
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tsp granulated sugar
Mini vanilla wafers (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line the bottom of a 9-inch square glass baking dish with a single layer of vanilla wafers, and top with a layer of banana slices.
  • To make the pudding, combine sugar with flour in a medium saucepan. Stir to combine, then stir in 1/2 cup milk.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks until light in color, then whisk them into the milk mixture. Add the remaining milk and butter, and a pinch of salt.
  • Place over low heat and cook until butter has melted and mixture has thickened, stirring frequently for 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Immediately pour half of this mixture over the bananas and wafers in the baking dish.
  • Add a layer of vanilla wafers and then a final layer of banana slices. Pour the rest of the pudding mixture on top.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  • Chill before serving, for at least 2 hours. Beat heavy cream with sugar on high speed until it forms stiff peaks. Serve garnished with homemade whipped cream and banana slices.
