Banana Pudding Parfait Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes. Whisk in sour cream and vanilla. Fold in three-fourths of the whipped topping. , Set aside eight vanilla wafers. Place one wafer into each of eight parfait glasses; top with a third of the banana slices and pudding mixture. Repeat layers twice. Top with remaining whipped topping. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Garnish with reserved vanilla wafers.

Steps:

• Mix sugar and flour in a saucepan. Separate eggs. Reserve whites for meringue. Stir yolks with a fork until blended. Add milk in same cup as egg yolks. Slowly stir egg/milk mixture into sugar/flour mixture until well blended. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until very thick. Remove thickened custard from heat, add butter and allow to melt. Cool. Add vanilla flavoring.
• Divide half of the crushed wafers between 4 (8-ounce) glasses or goblets. Top each with 5 to 6 slices banana. Pour half of the cooled custard evenly into each glass over the bananas. Repeat each layer with the remaining ingredients. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• To make the meringue: whisk together the reserved egg whites and sugar in a large heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a saucepan of gently simmering water and whisk constantly until the sugar is dissolved and whites are very hot to the touch. Transfer the mixture to the bowl of a standing mixer. Whip the whites until stiff, glossy peaks form and the meringue is cool. Add the vanilla and mix well. Spoon the meringue or pipe with a piping bag over the pudding in each glass.
• Using a hand-held blowtorch, brown the meringue until golden. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine the coconut milk, soy milk, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, salt and 4 of the bananas (broken in half) in a blender. Blend on high speed until smooth. Put the chia seeds in a medium mixing bowl or a large glass jar and pour the banana mixture on top. Stir well to combine, and put the mixture in the refrigerator for 4 hours or up to overnight to thicken. (Stir the mixture after 1 hour, to ensure no chia seeds settle to the bottom of the bowl or jar.)
• Slice the remaining bananas. Spoon 3/4 cup chia pudding into each of 6 bowls, jars or parfait glasses, and top each serving with 1/4 cup yogurt, a sixth of the banana slices and 1/2 tablespoon coconut. Serve.
