OLD-FASHIONED BANANA PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat the milk in a medium saucepan to a simmer over medium heat. In a second medium saucepan, whisk the egg yolks with 3/4 cup of the sugar until thick and light. Stir in the flour and salt to make a smooth paste.
• Whisk the scalded milk into the egg mixture, blend well and then return the pan to gentle heat. (Make sure the cream is perfectly smooth before letting it boil!) Whisk until boiling. Continue to cook the cream, whisking constantly, until thick and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the vanilla extract and stir to combine. Strain the pastry cream into a bowl; set aside.
• Place a layer of the vanilla wafers all over the bottom of a medium baking dish (9-by-13-inch). Spread half of the reserved pastry cream on top of the wafers. Place the bananas evenly over the pastry cream in the baking dish. Top with a second layer of wafers. Spoon the remaining pastry cream over the wafers; set aside.
• In a heavy-duty mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the egg whites on high speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, a little at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Spoon the meringue over the pastry cream and spread evenly to cover the entire surface, sealing well at the edges. Using a spatula, make curls and peaks in the meringue.
• Bake until lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove to a rack to cool slightly. Serve immediately, warm or cold.

Steps:

• 1. Removing the vanilla seeds from pod; Place the bean on a flat surface. Hold the bean flat with one hand, and split the bean in half lengthwise with a sharp paring knife. 2.

• 2. In a large bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sugar.
• 3. In a large saucepan, combine flour and salt
• 4. Whisk in milk and vanilla beans.
• 5. Bring the ingredients to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly.

Bake until meringue browns, 12 to 15 minutes.
• 12. IF USING WHIPPING CREAM TOPPING: Topping: 1 cup heavy whipping cream 2 1/2 tbsps. confectioners' sugar ½ tsp. vanilla Pour the cream into a well-chilled bowl. Using an electric hand mixer or balloon whisk, beat the cream to the desired consistency. For soft peaks, the cream will be just thick enough to hold its shape in soft billows, about 2-4 minutes Add the vanilla and confectioners' sugar; continue whipping on medium speed until the soft peaks return, 2 to 3 minutes.
• 13. Line each serving glass with a single layer with 3 tablespoons of pudding, 4 broken vanilla wafers then a few slices of banana, then top with whipped cream,
• 14. Repeat creating 3 layers and finishing with a pudding layer. Serve this old fashion rich vanilla banana pudding warm, or refrigerate up to 4 hours to soften the cookies.
