Banana Caramel Cream Dessert Recipes

This recipe starts with delicious homemade pastry cream, then fresh bananas, whipped cream, caramel sauce, and a graham cracker crust.

Each element is pretty tasty on it’s own, but when layered together they create a truly amazing dessert!

Ingredients:

• Vanilla Pastry Cream (recipe below)
• Bananas (I used two bananas for 6 small dessert servings)
• Good quality caramel sauce, or dulce de leche.
• Fresh whipped cream (I used 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream and 1 Tablespoon powdered sugar)
• Graham Cracker crumble (recipe below)

Vanilla Pastry Cream

• 2/3 cup sugar (can be reduced to 1/2 cup if you prefer desserts less sweet)
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups whole milk
• 2 eggs
• 2 Tablespoons butter
• 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract (or 2 teaspoons vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste)

Graham Cracker Crumble

• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 10 full sized crackers)
• 1/3 cup butter, melted
• 1 Tablespoon sugar

Directions:
Make Pastry Cream –

1. In a medium bowl,  beat eggs with a fork to combine.  Set aside.
2. Mix sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepan.  Gradually pour in milk, while whisking, to make a smooth mixture.  Cook over medium heat, stirring almost constantly, until the mixture thickens and boils.  Continue to cook and stir one minute.
3. Pour several tablespoons of the hot mixture into the bowl with the eggs and immediately stir well.  Pour warmed egg mixture into the pan with the rest of the hot milk mixture.  Return to a slow boil, and cook one minute, stirring constantly.
4. Remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla.  Set aside to cool.  When the pan has cooled, place in the refrigerator to fully cool.  If desired, lay a piece of plastic wrap on the top surface of the pastry cream to prevent a skin from forming.
