SERVINGS: 6-8

CATEGORY: Dessert

METHOD: Baked

TIME: Prep: 25 min. Bake: 15 min. + cooling

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2-1/2 cups milk
  • 3 egg yolks, lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 medium firm bananas
  • 1 pastry shell (9 inches), baked
  • MERINGUE:
  • 3 egg white
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 6 tablespoons sugar

Directions:

In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt. Stir in milk until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot filling into egg yolks; return all to the pan. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Stir in butter and vanilla until butter is melted; keep warm. Slice bananas into the pastry shell.
    In a large bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved.
    Pour hot filling over bananas. Spread meringue evenly over filling, sealing edges to crust. Bake at 350° for 15 minutes or until the meringue is golden brown. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour.
    Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving. Store leftovers in the refrigerator. Yield: 6-8 servings.
