Time 2h30m

Yield makes about 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
About cup chopped banana, plus more for garnish
Chopped roasted and salted peanuts for garnish

Steps:

  • Bring 1 cup of the milk to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  • Meanwhile, combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk in the remaining 1 cup milk a little at a time to avoid lumps, then whisk in the egg.
  • When the milk is boiling, remove the saucepan from the heat and gradually whisk in the sugar-milk mixture, stirring constantly. Return to medium-low heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the pudding comes to a simmer and is thick and creamy, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter and vanilla until smooth. Stir in the peanut butter.
  • Divide the pudding among 4 to 6 1/2-cup ramekins or serving glasses, layering each with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the banana. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until fully set, about 2 hours. Right before serving, garnish with more bananas and chopped peanuts.
