Banana Pudding with Vanilla Wafers
Ingredients
  • 4 ripe bananas
  • Milk - 2 cups
  • 4 egg yolks
  • Sugar - 1 cup
  • All-purpose flour - 1/2 cup
  • Vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon
  • A pinch of salt

  • 4 egg whites
  • Sugar - 4 tablespoons
  • Vanilla extract - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Cream of tartar - 1/4 teaspoon
Procedure


Start by preheating the oven to 375° F. Take a baking dish and add a layer to vanilla wafers. Take a bowl and add flour, sugar and salt. Mix well and keep it aside. Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan and beat egg yolks. You must make sure that you beat them well. On a medium flame, combine the egg yolks and the flour mixture. Now add milk and vanilla extract to it. Stir it well. As the mixture starts boiling and starts becoming thick, add butter and keep stirring. When you see it getting the desired pudding consistency, remove it from the flame. Now you need to peel the ripe bananas into round pieces. Add a layer of these banana slices on top of the vanilla wafers. Add half of the pudding on top of the wafers and banana slices. Top it with a layer of vanilla wafers again, then add another layer of bananas and cover with the rest of the pudding. As for the meringue, beat the egg whites till they form soft peaks and add cream of tartar and sugar and beat for some more time. Then fold vanilla into it. Spread this over the pudding. Put it in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes. Your banana pudding is ready!
