this is what Lann requested instead of cake for his birthday. It was the first time i'd made one from scratch. It took awhile but boy was it thrilling when it all came together nicely:)
ingredients:
8 tablespoons cornstarch
1 1/4 cups sugar
4 eggs, slightly beaten
4 cups cold milk
2 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 pinch salt
3 bananas, sliced diagonally
Directions:
ingredients for 10" BAKED pie shell.
MIX cornstarch, sugar, salt.
ADD to COLD milk in a medium size saucepan.
STIR to dissolve.
Cook mixture over MEDIUM heat (Stir constantly to prevent scorching) until bubbly.
Pour 1/4 of the hot mixture into beaten eggs.
Mix thoroughly.
Return mixture to the saucepan.
Continue cooking until mixture comes back to"bubbling" and is thick.
Blend in butter and vanilla.
Pour half of the mixture into 10" baked pie shell.
Cover the top with sliced bananas.
Pour remainder of the mixture on top of the bananas.
Let the filling cool-- then refrigerate until firm.
Top the pie with sweetened whipped cream and serve!
