HOMEMADE BANANA PUDDING IN THE MICROWAVE



Homemade Banana Pudding in the Microwave image

My Mother made her banana pudding (ok, it's really vanilla pudding poured over sliced bananas) in the top of a double boiler on the stove. It was always topped with meringue and baked, then served warm. This is more of a modern version, made quickly in the microwave for convenience. Although this is served cold and topped with whipped topping, you can still reserve the egg whites, beat them with sugar, spread over the top of the pudding and bake until brown to serve it for Southern style warm banana pudding. Cooking time does not include cooling.

MICROWAVE BANANA PUDDING

This is just like the old fashioned banana pudding that my mom made on top of the stove. I've made this with Splenda and fat free wafers, mu husband likes it just as well. I also have made meringue using Splenda and it works well also.

Time 4h25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 c milk
1 c sugar
2 egg yolks, reserve whites
4 Tbsp flour
2 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 box vanilla wafers
4 Tbsp sugar
2-3 bananas

Steps:

  • 1. Place milk, sugar, egg yolks and flour in microwaveable bowl. Mix well. Microwave on high for 2 minutes, stir it well. Microwave for 2 more minutes, stir well. Keep an eye on it or it will boil over and make a mess. (At this point, I like to microwave a minute at the time to avoid this). As it starts to thicken, stir more often. After six minutes, or less, it should be getting thick, not too thick. If it is add milk by the tablespoon and stir to get it to a gravy consistency. It will thicken up as it cools. Add the butter and the vanilla extract. Stir well.
  • 2. Put a layer of pudding in the bottom of your dish. Slice up enough bananas to cover. Then add a layer of vanilla wafers. Repeat with pudding; bananas; and wafers. I try to end with pudding on top.
  • 3. Put the reserved egg whites in a clean grease-free bowl. Beat with mixer on medium high. When they start to get frothy, add 4 tablespoons of sugar and beat until glossy, stiff peaks form. Spread on top of pudding.
  • 4. Broil in the oven until meringue is golden brown - DON'T TAKE YOUR EYES OFF IT WHILE IT IS BROILING, IT TAKES LESS THAN A MINUTE WITH A GAS RANGE!
  • 5. Chill for about 4 hours or overnight.
