SOUTHERN-STYLE BAKED BANANA PUDDING



Southern-Style Baked Banana Pudding image

If you like banana cream pie, you'll absolutely love baked banana pudding. Not only is there no pie crust to mess with, but I think the vanilla wafer cookies pair even more perfectly with the fruit and custardy pudding. We want the bananas to match the texture of the custard-soaked cookies, so make sure you buy them a week beforehand. Other than that, not much can go wrong with this simple Southern classic.

Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 large eggs
½ cup white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon banana liqueur
1 tablespoon cold butter
3 very ripe bananas, or more to taste, sliced
1 ½ teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 (12 ounce) package miniature vanilla wafers
⅛ teaspoon cream of tartar
2 tablespoons white sugar

Steps:

  • Separate eggs, placing the whites in the bowl of a stand mixer and the yolks into a saucepan.
  • Add sugar, salt, and 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour to the yolks. Splash in about 1/4 of the milk and start blending mixture with a whisk. Pour in remaining milk and whisk until smooth.
  • Cook and stir mixture over medium heat until hot to the touch, occasionally dipping your finger in to test. Whisk constantly until custard is thick enough to form ribbons.
  • Remove custard from heat and add vanilla extract, banana liqueur, and cold butter. Whisk until butter dissolves. Set custard aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Toss banana slices with lemon juice.
  • Spread a quarter of the custard over the bottom of a baking dish. Add a single layer of vanilla wafers. Cover with 1/2 of the bananas and spread 1/2 of the remaining custard on top. Add another layer of vanilla wafers, using slightly fewer this time. Top with the remaining bananas and custard. Smooth the top and tap dish against the counter to settle the pudding.
  • Add cream of tartar to the egg whites. Beat using the whisk attachment until foamy. Gradually add sugar and beat until stiff, but not dry, peaks form. Spread meringue over the pudding using a soft spatula, creating ridges for contrast.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until meringue is nicely browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Serve warm or chilled.

  • 3. This is also just as good without the meringue. You can serve with a whipped topping instead. if you want to keep the bananas from discoloring-squeeze a little lemon juice (real not bottled) over the bananas before assembling
