Banana Pudding

Directions

1. 1
   In a saucepan heat bananas, cream and milk over medium heat, stirring constantly. After a few minutes, use a potato masher to smash the bananas. Bring mixture almost to a boil and keep it there.
2. 2
   In a separate bowl, combine sugar, cornstarch and salt. Pour it slowly into the hot cream mixture, stirring constantly. Continue stirring and cooking until it reaches a boil.
3. 3
   Beat the eggs in a heatproof bowl. Add a few spoonfuls of the hot liquid into the eggs, and mix. Quickly add eggs back into the saucepan, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil and boil for 1-2 minutes.
4. 4
   Remove pan from heat and add vanilla and butter. Mix to combine.
5. 5
   Pour pudding into a bowl, or into individual ramekins, and cover with plastic wrap, making sure the plastic coats the surface of the pudding to keep it from forming a skin.
6. 6
   Chill completely before serving.
