Banana Pudding w/ Nilla Wafers image

Banana Cream pudding my favorite. This dessert is one of my favorites but I don't make this that often cuz my bf doesn't like bananas. I only make it on special occasions but it is a family favorite & my neices love it! Great kid snack!

Time 3h10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 c sugar
1 Tbsp cornstarch
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp salt
1 1/2 c half and half
2 egg yolks
1 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp vanilla
3-4 bananas, sliced
24 vanilla wafer, crushed
whipped cream (for serving)

Steps:

  • 1. Whisk together sugar, cornstarch, nutmeg and salt in a medium saucepan, then whisk in half and half and egg yolks. Place over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until pudding thickens and begins to boil, 5-8 minutes. Remove from heat and add butter and vanilla. Whisk until butter has melted. Transfer pudding to a bowl and refrigerate until cold, about 3 hours.
  • 2. In your preferred serving dish (I used individual parfait glasses. You could also use ramekins or even a casserole dish if serving a bigger crowd), create two sets of layers using the bananas, 1/3 of the pudding and Nilla wafers. Top with the remaining 1/3 of the pudding.
  • 3. Before serving, top with whipped cream and additional banana slices and Nilla wafers, if desired. ENJOY!!
