Upgrade your Banana Cream Pie with a sprinkle of Cinnamon Toast Crunch for a playful and delicious twist.
Ingredients:
  • 4 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch™ cereal
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream
  • 2 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch™ cereal
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 to 3 bananas, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Combine the Crust ingredients in a food processor and pulse until fine crumbs form. Add 1/4 cup of butter and process until mixture clumps together when pinched. Press the mixture into an ungreased 9-inch glass pie plate to form an even crust on the bottom and sides.
  • Bake in the center of the oven for around 13 minutes. Once done, transfer to a cooling rack and let it cool completely for about 30 minutes.
  • In a 2-quart saucepan, mix 2 cups of milk, 1/2 cup cream, and 2 cups of cereal. Gently simmer the mixture, then remove from heat, cover, and let it steep for 30 minutes.
  • Pour the cereal-milk mixture through a fine strainer, gently pressing on the cereal to squeeze out all the flavorful liquid. Dispose of the used cereal.
  • Whisk 1/2 cup milk and cornstarch in a small bowl until smooth. Pour cornstarch mixture into cereal-milk mixture. In another bowl, whisk egg yolks, 1/3 cup sugar, and salt until thick and pale. Gradually mix warm cereal-milk into the egg yolk mixture. Cook the mixture in a saucepan over medium-low heat until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon, stirring constantly.
  • Blend in 2 tablespoons of butter using an immersion blender or whisk until smooth. Allow the pudding to cool slightly.
  • Spread half of the pudding mixture into the crust. Arrange slices of banana over the first layer of pudding, then add the remaining pudding, smoothing the top. Cover the pudding with plastic wrap directly on the surface. Chill the pie until the pudding is cool and set, approximately 2 hours.
  • Whip 1 cup of cream and powdered sugar with an electric mixer on high speed until medium-soft peaks form. Spread over the top of the chilled pie just before serving.
