Rum Banana Pudding image

Southern Living, March 2006. I was looking for something a little more exciting than traditional banana pudding and this did the trick. Very rummy, so I wouldn't go past 3T. I used 3 bananas. Eat it fast, the first day is the best. You can also serve cold by allowing it to cool 15 minutes, then chilling 4 hours.

Time 30m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups milk
2/3 cup sugar
2 egg yolks
3 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons light rum
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 medium bananas, sliced
30 vanilla wafers
1 cup chopped pecans
2 egg whites
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk together the first 5 ingredients in a large saucepan over medium-low heat; cook, whisking constantly, 6 to 8 minutes or until thickened (Note: pudding always takes me twice the time the recipe lists--usually 15 to 20 minutes.).
  • Let pudding stand 5 minutes, then gently stir in bananas.
  • Arrange 15 vanilla wafers in single layer on bottom of a 1 1/2 quart bakign dish. Sprinkle 1/2 cup pecans on wavers. Pour half of pudding on top. Repeat layers, ending with pecans.
  • Beat egg whites and 1/8 cream of tartar at high speed until foamy.
  • Add remaining sugar one teaspoon at a time, beating until soft peaks form (1 to 2 min).
  • Spread meringue evenly over top, sealing edges.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.

This recipe is a waste of time and ingredients. The pudding was bland and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly and my pudding turned out really watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This pudding was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

This was a great recipe! The pudding was easy to make and it turned out so creamy and delicious. The rum flavor was subtle but it really added a nice touch.
