There is nothing like a homemade banana pudding, but my family loves for me to make these in individual parfaits. This recipe will make 3 large parfaits. You will need the following ingredients:
Recipe:
2 bananas, sliced thinly
1 1/2 cups of mini vanilla wafers
1 egg
2 tablespoons, 2 teaspoons of flour
1 cup of milk
1/4 cup of sugar
1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract
3 tablespoons of whipped cream

In a heavy bottomed small sauce pan, add the flour, sugar, egg, and milk and whisk together until everything is well mixed. Tip: You can use a double boiler but I just use a sauce pan.
Turn the stove to medium and continue whisking until the pudding gets thick. This will take about 5 – 8 minutes. You do not want the pudding to scorch so make sure you continue whisking as the pudding is thickening.
When the pudding is thick remove from the heat and add the vanilla.

In a glass start layering the vanilla wafers then the sliced bananas. Add the vanilla pudding then add another layer of sliced bananas, wafers and pudding. Add a spoonful of whipped cream and garnish with a vanilla wafer and a slice of banana. Enjoy!
