Step-by-Step Instructions
To start off, I gather my ingredients, making sure the bananas are perfectly ripe; there’s nothing quite like that sweet, soft texture! In a saucepan, I mix the milk, sugar, cornstarch, salt, and egg yolks over medium heat, whisking continuously until it begins to thicken. The excitement builds as I see it transform into a beautiful creamy texture. It’ll only take about 5-7 minutes of constant stirring. Once it thickens, I add the vanilla extract, and my kitchen smells heavenly! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
