Banana Pudding

We've had a busy start to rainy season, so I'm just now getting a chance to blog again.  Here's a recipe for Banana Pudding that we enjoy!

1 Cup sugar

2 Tablespoons Cornstarch

2 Tablespoons Flour

Pinch of salt

2 Cups milk

2 egg yolks

1 teaspoon vanilla

2 tablespoons butter

1 box of Digestive Biscuits or Vanilla Wafers

Sliced Bananas

To make the pudding, combine the sugar, flour, cornstarch and salt in a pot.  In another bowl, combine the egg yolks and the milk and mix well.  Stir the milk/egg mixture into the dry ingredients.  Cook over medium to low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture boils and thickens.  Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and butter.  Refrigerate until cold. I put mine in the fridge overnight.

Layer a bowl with one layer of cookies, one layer of pudding and one layer of sliced bananas. I dip my bananas in lemon or lime juice first just to make sure they don't turn dark.  I pat them dry before I put them in the Banana pudding.

Continue to layer in this order until the bowl is full.  Decorate the top with whip cream or cookies.
