Grapevine Cafe Strawberry Banana Pie
1 1/2 C. sugar
1/2 C. plus 2 T. cornstarch
1/4 t. salt
6 C. milk
7 egg yolks
4 T. butter
1 T. vanilla
2 T. strawberry pie glaze
2 pints strawberries, sliced
4 bananas, sliced
2 baked, 9-inch deep-dish pie shells
Whipped cream for garnish
In the top of a double boiler, stir together sugar, cornstarch and salt.
Gradually stir in milk, egg yolks and butter. Cook and stir with a whisk over
simmering water until custard is very thick. The whisk should almost stand up by
itself in the mixture. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Cool to room
temperature.
Stir strawberry glaze into the custard. Place a layer of custard in the bottom
of each pie shell. Top with one sliced banana and a half-pint of sliced berries
per pie. Repeat custard and fruit layers. Top with remaining custard. Chill.
Just before serving, top pie with whipped cream. Garnish with additional
strawberries and dried banana chips, if desired.
Makes 2 pies.
