Ingredients
- 1 box of vanilla wafers
- 4 ripe bananas (sliced)
- 2 cups of whole milk
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1 cup of sour cream
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 4 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup of cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Cooking Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F
2. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, sour cream, sugar, egg yolks, cornstarch, salt, and vanilla extract.
3. Cook the mixture over medium heat, whisking constantly until it thickens (about 8-10 minutes).
4. Remove the pudding from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
5. Arrange a layer of vanilla wafers in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Add a layer of sliced bananas on top of the wafers. Repeat this process until you have used all the wafers and bananas.
6. Pour the cooled pudding mixture over the top of the banana and wafer layers.
7. Bake the pudding in the preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes, or until the pudding is set and lightly browned on top.
8. Remove the pudding from the oven and let it cool for at least 20 minutes before serving.
Tips for Making Perfect Banana Pudding
1. Use ripe bananas. If your bananas are too firm, they won't break down enough and will be too starchy. Over-ripe bananas will be too mushy and won't hold their shape in the pudding.
2. Let your pudding cool before pouring over the wafers and bananas. If the pudding is too hot, it could melt the wafers and turn them into mush.
3. Don't skip the sour cream. It adds a tangy flavor that complements the sweetness of the bananas and vanilla wafers.
