This Southern Girl LOVES banana pudding! Caramelized bananas add depth and adding a little bit of that goodness to the pudding just takes it over the top. Trust me, it will make you slap your thighs (cause I don’t believe in “slapping yo Mama!”)

How To Make caramelized banana pudding
-
Step 1Heat oven to 450. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine 1/4 c sugar and 1/2 t cinnamon in shallow dish. Slice bananas lengthwise, and rub in cinnamon-sugar mix. Place bananas on baking sheet. Bake 15-20 min, discard any liquid accumulated. While bananas are baking, prepare pudding.

Step 2Whisk remaining 1/2 c sugar, 1/2 t cinnamon, corn starch, and salt in heavy pot. Slowly whisk in heavy cream (avoid lumps!). Cook over medium heat 7-10 min or until thick enough to hold a line drawn on back of spoon. Add butter and vanilla extract to pudding. Mash 1 1/2 halves baked bananas and add to pudding. Cover with plastic wrap and store in fridge 45 min to 1 hour.
