Old Fashioned Banana Pudding

 

Finish any summer meal with this classic dessert.

4 cups Milk

6 Egg yolks

3/4 cup Sugar

1/2 cup Flour

1 teaspoon Vanilla

1 pound Vanilla wafers

3 pounds Bananas, peeled and sliced

 

Warm the milk in a double boiler (or in a saucepan) over low heat.

Add the yolks, sugar, flour, and vanilla to a mixer bowl.

Mix on low speed until smooth.

Whisk into the milk and heat until it obtains the thickness of a thin pudding.

Strain. Allow to cool slightly. In a medium casserole dish, make a layer of wafers,

a layer of bananas, and half the custard mix. Repeat.

Top with a sprinkling of crushed wafers. Chill well before serving.
