Southern-Style Baked Banana Pudding – A Meliorate Banana Cream Pie

If you lot similar banana cream pie, you’ll absolutely dear baked banana pudding. Not solely is at that spot no piecrust to mess with, but I mean value the vanilla wafer cookies duet fifty-fifty to a greater extent than perfectly alongside the fruit as well as custardy pudding. 

Speaking of banana cream pie, don’t fifty-fifty mean value of skipping the meringue topping. Sure, whipped cream, or God foreclose “whipped topping,” mightiness survive a tad easier, but nosotros need to job upwards those 4 egg whites anyway, then produce it right.

As I said inwards the video, this is classically made inwards a clear drinking glass bowl or deep baking dish, then that you lot tin encounter the beautiful banana pudding beneath the meringue. That is a peachy look, but every bit long every bit it’s oven-safe, as well as you lot tin check everything in, whatever baking dish volition work. We’re non actually “baking” the pudding, but simply browning the top, then the depth or shape of the pan isn’t actually that important.

What is of import though, is that you lot job prissy ripe, soft bananas. We desire them some the same texture every bit the custard-soaked cookies, to actually larn the amount effect, then brand certain you lot purchase them at to the lowest degree a calendar week earlier you lot brand this. Other than that, non much tin larn incorrect alongside this Southern classic. In fact, this is then simple, as well as kid-friendly, it’d survive a peachy affair to brand for mom on Mother’s Day, which is why I actually promise you lot hand it a endeavor soon. Enjoy!
