Caramel Banana Cream Pie Recipe

This decadent pie combines the sweetness of bananas with a rich caramel custard filling and a buttery graham cracker crust.  

Ingredients:

  • For the Crust:
    • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
    • 1/4 cup melted butter
    • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • For the Filling:
    • 3 large egg yolks
    • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk  
    • 1/2 cup milk
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 2 ripe bananas, sliced  
    • 1/4 cup caramel topping

Instructions:

  1. Make the Crust:
    • In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar.
    • Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
    • Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely.
  2. Make the Filling:
    • In a saucepan, whisk together egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk, milk, sugar, and salt.
    • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes).
    • Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
  3. Assemble the Pie:
    • Arrange sliced bananas evenly over the cooled crust.
    • Pour the warm custard filling over the bananas.
    • Drizzle with caramel topping.
  4. Chill and Serve:
    • Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until completely chilled and set.
    • Serve cold and enjoy!
