They raved that the Banana Pudding Pie was so much better than the original. As a backup stop the cooking process every two minutes and stir well. The moral of the story – if you choose to shorten the cooking time by using the microwave make sure that all the ingredients are completely mixed. In fact after layering the custard with cookies and bananas you could not tell in the least that it was lumpy. That did not deter them from eating the pudding. Now to make a very long story short only four out of the eleven groups had great custard. My glass double boiler made it even easier. To get this perfectly straight I did start the custard in a double boiler for about five minutes until all of the ingredients were very well mixed. Which meant that my classes could get their Banana Pudding in the oven in less than an hour and still have time to enjoy it in the classroom. It worked perfectly for me -TWICE! Seven minutes is all it took and that really beats standing over a double boiler for about thirty minutes. ![]() At the last-minute I decided to try speeding up the custard by using the microwave. With a fire drill and advisement making the class almost too short to have anything but a glass of milk with vanilla wafers and sliced bananas I had to come up with something or just ditch the lab altogether. It is the one that I used in my classroom for our last lab of the year, but with a deterrents thrown our way I was not sure that we could pull it off. Everyone that I know loves the Original Banana Pudding recipe that’s posted on the side of most Nabisco vanilla wafer boxes and that’s the one that I usually make. ![]()
