BANANA PUDDING CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• For the crust:
• Preheat the oven to 325°F.
• Place the vanilla wafers in a food processor and pulse until the crumbs resemble coarse meal. Add the melted butter and sugar and pulse until the cookie crumbs are evenly moistened. Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie tin.
• Bake the crust until set and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
• For the filling:
• Cover and chill the egg whites. In a medium saucepan, combine the cornstarch, milk, cream, egg yolks, and 1 cup of the sugar. Cook over medium heat, whisking continuously, until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Do not leave the custard unattended while whisking because the egg yolks will cook and make the mixture grainy. Whisk in the butter, vanilla, and salt. Pour the custard into the baked crust and chill for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
• When ready to assemble the pie, preheat the oven to 375°F.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, combine the egg whites and the cream of tartar. With the mixer on high speed, gradually add the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar and whisk until stiff peaks form.
• Arrange the banana slices in a single layer over the custard. Top the banana slices with the vanilla wafers. Spread the meringue over the wafers, covering the entire pie.
• Bake until the meringue is light brown all over, about 10 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, then chill for at least 20 minutes before serving.
• Chef's Tip: The secret to making custard pies is controlling the heat of the stove: it should be intense enough to advance the cooking process but not so hot that it scorches the custard.

BANANA CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• 1. Make your pie crust and let it cool. Scald 2 cups of milk with the sugar and salt in a heavy medium size saucepan over low heat. Stir occasionally to dissolve sugar. Dissolve the cornstarch in the remaing 1/4 cup milk in a small bowl. Whisk in the egg yolks.
• 2. Whisk the egg mixture into the scalded milk. Cook, whisking constantly, over low heat until it thickens and bubbles, about 3 minutes, then cook for 1 minute more. The custard should form loose mounds when dropped from a spoon back into the pan.
• 3. Remove the custard from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla. Tranfer the custard to a small bowl and cool for 15 minutes, gently stirring several times to allow the steam to escape. Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the custard and take your kitchen sheers and cut 3 slits in the plastic. Cool for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
• 4. While the custard is cooling, cut the bananas into 1/4-inch-thick slices and toss them with the lemon juice to prevent them from turning brown.
• 5. Spread half the cooled cutard in the pie shell and cover it with a layer of bananas, Spread the remaining custard carefully over bananas and arrange the remaining bananas on top. Spread top with whip cream or merigue. (I browned my meringue in the oven) Chill the pie for atleast 2 hours before serving.
