Banana Cream Pie

• 份量: 12 servings
• 准备时间: 1 hour 20 minutes
• 总时间: 5 hours 45 minutes

配料

2 cups Nilla wafers (, crushed, (about 60 cookies)

⅓ cup butter (, melted)

4 large egg yolks

1/4 cup cornstarch

2 1/2 cups whole milk

2/3 cups granulated sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 Tablespoons butter (, cut into pieces)

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 large firm bananas (, sliced)

1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream

3 Tablespoons powdered sugar

步骤

Prepare the Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Add Nilla wafers to a food processor and pulse until crumbs (or crush them in a resealable bag, with a rolling pin). Add cookie crumbs to a bowl and stir in melted butter. Use the back of a measuring cup to press mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9'' pie plate. Bake for 10 minutes. Allow to cool completely before adding the custard filling.

Banana Pudding: Mix egg yolks and cornstarch in a bowl until smooth. Set aside. To a large saucepan, add sugar, salt and milk to a large, heavy saucepan and whisk to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until it comes to a simmer.

Spoon a big ladleful of simmering milk out of the pot, and very slowly whisk the milk into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly as you pour a slow steady stream, to temper the eggs (warm them up slowly, without scrambling them).

Pour the tempered egg mixture into the saucepan, whisking to incorporate. Cook, stirring constantly over medium heat, until the mixture has thickened (thick enough to coat the back of a spoon).

Remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla extract. Strain pudding through a fine mesh sieve, into a storage container. Lay a piece of plastic wrap directly over the pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Allow to cool for 30 minutes.

Slice bananas into the bottom of the nilla wafer crust. Pour pudding over the top. Place a small piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding, so a skin doesn’t form. Refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours.

Whip Cream: Add heavy cream and powdered sugar to a mixing bowl and whip until peaks form. Smooth whipped cream over the top of the pie.

Refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours before serving.
