Best 3 Buttermilk Banana Pudding With Salted Peanuts Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES WITH BANANA PUDDING

Steps:

• Make the pudding: Whisk the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepan. Whisk in the milk until combined. Place the pan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Add the mashed bananas and reduce the heat to medium. Cook, stirring, until thickened, about 2 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla. Strain the pudding through a medium-mesh sieve into a medium bowl, pressing the pudding through with a rubber spatula. Whisk in a few drops of the yellow food coloring, if desired (the pudding may be grayish without it). Place plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350˚. Line two 12-cup muffin pans with paper liners. Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a large bowl.
• Beat the butter and sugar in a separate large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reduce the speed to medium and beat in the eggs, one at a time, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to low and beat in half the flour mixture, then the buttermilk, then the remaining flour mixture until combined. Beat in the peanut butter chips.
• Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling them about three-quarters of the way. Bake until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes in the pans, then transfer the cupcakes to racks to cool completely.
• Whisk the pudding vigorously to loosen. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a 1/4-inch round tip. Insert the tip into the center of each cupcake and fill with pudding, then pipe more of the pudding on top. Top with banana chips.

PEANUT BUTTER AND ROASTED BANANA PUDDING

Steps:

• For the pudding: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and spray the parchment with cooking spray.
• Thinly slice the bananas crosswise, about 1/8 inch thick. Toss the bananas in a bowl with the cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Place in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the bananas start to brown on the edges, about 10 minutes.
• In a saucepan, whisk together the granulated sugar, flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir in the whole eggs and yolks, and then stir in the milk. Cook uncovered, stirring often, until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
• Spread a thin layer of the pudding in a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish. Arrange a layer of sandwich cookies on top of the pudding, and arrange a third of the roasted banana slices over the cookies. Spread a third of the remaining pudding over the bananas and continue layering cookies, bananas and pudding, ending with pudding, so you have 3 layers total. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
• Whip together the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar in a medium bowl with an electric mixer to stiff peaks. Spread over the banana pudding.
• For the ganache: Place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Heat the cream until hot but not simmering. Pour over top of the chocolate and let sit for a minute before stirring to melt and combine. Drizzle the ganache over the pudding. Spoon the pudding into bowls and serve chilled or at room temperature.

PEANUT BUTTER PUDDING WITH BANANAS

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.
