Ingredients
- 1/3 c. all-purpose flour
- dash of salt
- 2 1/2 c. 1 percent low-fat milk
- 1 (14 oz.) can fat-free sweetened condensed milk
- 2 egg yolks, lightly beaten
- 2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 to 3 c. sliced ripe bananas
- 45-50 reduced-fat vanilla wafers (depending on baking dishes)
- 4 egg whites
- 1/4 c. sugar
Preparation
Step 1
Combine flour and salt in a medium saucepan. Gradually stir in 1 percent milk, sweetened condensed milk, and yolks, and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, 8 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Layer 3 banana slices, 3 1/2 tablespoons pudding, and 3 vanilla wafers in each of 8 (1-cup) ramekins or individual baking dishes. Top each with 6 banana slices, 3 1/2 tablespoons pudding, and 3 vanilla wafers. Beat egg whites at high speed with an electric mixer until foamy. Add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form and sugar dissolves (2 to 4 minutes). Spread about 1/2 cup meringue over each pudding. Bake at 325 degrees for 25 minutes or until golden. Let cool at least 30 minutes.
