Banana Cream Pie
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour or 1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups milk
4 eggs
3 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 9-inch Baked Pastry Shell
Meringue for pie
For filling, in a medium saucepan combine sugar, flour or cornstarch, and
salt; gradually stir in milk. Cook and stir over medium heat till thickened
and bubbly. Reduce heat, cook and stir 2 minutes more. Remove from heat.
Separate egg whites; set whites aside for meringue. Beat egg yolks slightly.
Gradually stir 1 cup of the hot mixture into yolks. Return egg mixture to
saucepan; bring to a gentle boil. Cook and stir 2 minutes more. Remove
from heat. Stir in butter and vanilla. Pour hot filling into Baked Pastry
Shell. Spread meringue over hot filling; seal to edge. Bake in a 350F oven
for 12 to 15 minutes or till golden. Cool. Cover; chill to store. Makes
8 servings.
For banana cream pie, slice three bananas into bottom of pie crust, then
pour hot filling over and bake as usual. Garnish with whipped cream and
sliced bananas instead of the meringue.
