How to Make Banana Graham Cracker Pudding
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually whisk in 3 cups whole milk until smooth.
- Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle boil.
- Continue to cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Remove from heat.
- In a separate bowl, whisk 2 large egg yolks slightly. Temper the yolks by slowly whisking in 1/4 cup of the hot pudding mixture. Then, whisk the tempered yolks back into the saucepan with the remaining pudding.
- Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Layer ingredients in a medium-sized serving bowl (approximately 2-quart capacity):
- Layer 1: 1/2 of the crushed graham crackers.
- Layer 2: 1/2 of the sliced bananas (approximately 2 medium bananas, thinly sliced).
- Layer 3: 1/2 of the pudding mixture.
- Repeat layers 1-3.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup of crushed graham crackers over the top layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld.
- Serve chilled. Makes 4-5 servings.
