Top creamy vanilla custard with bananas cooked gently in a salted caramel sauce.
- Level: Easy
- Total: 15 min
- Active: 15 min
- Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
3/4 cup sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 1/4 cups milk
3 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 medium bananas, sliced crosswise about 1/4-inch thick
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Directions
- Whisk 1/4 cup of the sugar and the cornstarch together in a medium saucepan. Whisk in 1/4 cup of the milk and the egg yolks until smooth. Whisk in the remaining 2 cups milk and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring and scraping the bottom and corners of the pan often with a heatproof rubber spatula. Once boiling, stir constantly, until thick, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in 1 tablespoon of butter and the vanilla. Divide the pudding among 4 small glasses.
- Combine the remaining 1/2 cup sugar with 2 tablespoons water in a medium skillet and stir to moisten all of the sugar. Cook over medium-high heat, swirling the skillet so the sugar cooks evenly, until dark golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter, the bananas, and salt and cook, stirring, until the bananas are slightly softened, about 2 minutes.
- Spoon the bananas on top of the pudding and serve warm.
