Ingredients

  • 1 (12 oz) box sugar-free shortbread
  • 2 medium bananas
  • 1/2 stick butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups whole or skim milk
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 cup artificial sweetner

Directions

Mix together the artificial sweetener and cornstarch and slowly add milk. Add to heat, stirring constantly until it thickens—do not leave it unattended. Ideally, this should cook in the top of a double boiler, but you can cook it over low to medium heat, instead.

Slightly beat egg yolks and temper with a small amount of the hot custard; stir well. Add egg mixture to custard pot and cook 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and add vanilla and butter. Let cool.

In a 9×9-inch baking dish, alternate pudding, bananas and wafers, beginning with pudding and ending with pudding.

The recipes that I have tried have been delicious,I tried the banana pudding with 2%milk and it took a very long time to get thick the next time I will try whole milk. I almost gave up but after reading one of the comments I decided to continue and eventually it did thickened. My husband enjoyed the pudding very much. Thanks Paula.
