What You Will Need To Make Banana Cream Pie

  • 1 pie crust (baked)
  • Filling:
  • 3 cups milk (I used skim)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 bananas, sliced
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla
 
 
  • Whipped Topping:
  • 8 oz heavy whipping cream
  • 1-2 tbsp sugar or powdered sugar

How to Make the Banana Cream Pie

Measure out the milk.

 
In a small saucepan, scald milk by heating until just before it boils.
 
 
In a medium saucepan, combine dry ingredients.
 
Gradually stir in hot milk to dry ingredients and cook over medium heat until thickened (2-3 minutes).
 
In a small bowl, slightly beat the eggs
 
 
Temper the eggs by adding a small amount of the hot mixture to the eggs, and mix until well combined.
 
Then add eggs into the hot mixture and cook 1 minute longer (stirring constantly)
 
Remove from heat and add the vanilla and butter.
Let mixture cool until lukewarm.
While cooling, make whipped cream with stand mixer or by hand, beat 8 oz heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form, then add sugar or powdered sugar to sweeten to taste.
Fill the baked pie crust with banana slices.
Next add the filling, then top with whipped cream.
