List of Ingredients
- ½ cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- ¼ cup butter
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
- 4 large ripe bananas, sliced
- 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 4 large eggs, separated
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 48 vanilla wafers
Instructions
- Cook first 3 ingredients in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, 2 to 3 minutes or until bubbly. Add bananas; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Remove from heat.
- Whisk together ¾ cup granulated sugar, next 3 ingredients, and 4 egg yolks in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, 8 to 10 minutes or until a pudding-like thickness. (Mixture will just begin to bubble and will hold soft peaks when whisk is lifted.) Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
- Divide half of banana mixture, pudding, and wafers among 8 (1-cup) ramekins or ovenproof glass dishes. Layer with remaining banana mixture, pudding, and vanilla wafers.
- Beat 4 egg whites at high speed with an electric mixer until foamy. Add remaining ¼ cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form and sugar dissolves (2 to 4 minutes). Spread meringue over ramekins. Place ramekins on a baking sheet.
- Bake at 325° F for 15 to 20 minutes, or until meringue is golden. Let cool on a wire rack 30 minutes.
Makes 8 servings.
