THE BEST BANANA PUDDING



The Best Banana Pudding image

This creamy banana dessert is our very favorite version, piled high with layers of just-ripe bananas, rich vanilla pudding and tender cookies. We used vanilla bean paste instead of extract in our homemade filling for a bold flavor boost and topped the pudding with swirls of freshly whipped cream. When it all comes together, it's dreamy, luscious and feeds a crowd!

Time 3h10m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 cups whole milk
1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
2/3 cup cornstarch
12 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
114 vanilla wafer cookies, such as Nilla Wafers (from two 15-ounce boxes), plus 5 cookies, crushed
12 medium-ripe bananas, sliced about 1/4 inch thick
3/4 cup cold heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Bring the milk to a simmer in a large saucepan over medium heat, then remove from the heat. Meanwhile, whisk the sugar, cornstarch, egg yolks, vanilla paste and salt together in a medium bowl.
  • While whisking, slowly add about 1 cup of the warm milk to the egg mixture. Pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan, whisking constantly. Continue to cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil. Lower the heat to maintain a simmer and cook until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter.
  • Transfer the pudding to a large bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap directly against the surface. Refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour.
  • Arrange 19 wafer cookies in the bottom of a 4-quart trifle dish. Top with 1 cup pudding, then arrange 2 sliced bananas on top. Repeat the layers ending with bananas.
  • Add the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar and a pinch of salt to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.
  • Spread the whipped cream over the pudding and sprinkle the crushed wafer cookies around the border. Refrigerate until the pudding is firm, at least 2 hours or up to overnight.

BANANA PUDDING

I didn't see my son, Lance Corporal Eric Harris, for more than two years after he enlisted in the Marines after high school. And when I saw him arrive at the airport, I just grabbed hold of him and burst out crying. When we got home, the first thing he ate was two bowls of my easy banana pudding recipe. He's a true southern boy! It's a dessert, but you can have it for breakfast, lunch or dinner. -Stephanie Harris, Montpelier, Virginia

Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

10 ripe bananas
1 (16 ounce) box vanilla wafers (sometimes i use more)
12 ounces eagle brand sweetened condensed milk
12 ounces Cool Whip, thawed
1 (6 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding (Large Size)

Steps:

  • Mix pudding according to package directions.
  • let stand while you slice the bananas. I use an egg slicer to get nice even slices, not to mention it goes so much faster.
  • add sweet condensed milk to pudding mixture and mix very well.
  • add cool whip and mix well.
  • Layer wafers, sliced bananas then pudding in a punch bowl. I usually get 3-4 layers but it depends on how thick you make them, its totally up to you.
  • Let stand overnight or at least 4-6 hours so it really gets that banana flavor.
  • You can use more or less wafers depending on your taste and i always add the top layer just before serving so that they are still crisp. You can get creative with the wafers and really make a nice presentation.
