Time 3h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups milk
4 large eggs
4 large egg yolks
⅔ cup white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 ¼ teaspoons vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon almond extract
5 large ripe bananas
2 tablespoons orange juice
3 (3 ounce) packages ladyfingers

Steps:

  • Combine milk, eggs, and egg yolks in a medium saucepan over low heat. Beat well and heat until hot to the touch but not boiling, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Combine sugar and salt in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Slowly add milk mixture, stirring frequently. Cook and stir, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until smooth and as thick as heavy cream, 8 to 10 minutes. Add butter, vanilla, and almond extract; stir until butter melts.
  • Strain custard mixture through a sieve into a large bowl. Lay a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface and place in the refrigerator until completely cooled, at least 2 hours.
  • Slice bananas into 3/4-inch thick pieces. Place in a bowl and sprinkle with orange juice.
  • Arrange 1/2 of the ladyfingers in the bottom of a trifle bowl. Arrange 1/2 of the banana slices over the ladyfingers and pour 1/2 of the cooled custard over top. Repeat layers once more. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.

The banana pudding was good, but I think it could have used more bananas. I might try adding an extra banana next time.

This banana pudding is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still a good recipe. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
