Banana Cream Pie

Homemade Banana Cream Pie – so good!

4 Tbsps Cornstarch
3/4 cup Sugar
1/8 tsp Salt
2 cups Milk (I used whole)
2 Eggs
1 Tbsp Butter
1 tsp Vanilla ( I used Watkins Baking Vanilla)
1 tsp Watkins Banana Extract , optional
1 9 inch pie shell ( graham or a baked pastry)
1 pint of Whipping Cream, Whipped
4 Bananas, Sliced

Mix cornstarch, sugar and salt and add gradually to cold milk in saucepan. Stir constantly over medium heat until mixture is thick and bubbles, 4 to 5 minutes. Beat eggs slightly and add part of hot mixture with a whisk. Blend and return to saucepan. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and blend in butter. Add Vanilla and Banana extract. Cool. Slice 4 bananas and arrange them in your baked pie crust on the bottom. Pour mixture on top of bananas. Chill and then topped with whipped cream or a meringue as desired.
