Combine strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries for a burst of flavor. Use fresh or frozen berries to keep it convenient and delicious.
Toss berries with sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. This mixture creates a perfectly thick, sweet filling with a hint of tartness in every bite.
Select ripe yet firm bananas for the perfect balance of sweetness and texture. Evenly layer slices over the custard for a deliciously fruity bite.
Spread the custard gently over the banana layer. Make sure it’s evenly distributed to create a pie that’s picture-perfect with every slice.
Whip up fresh cream and sugar for a fluffy, cloud-like topping. Generously spread it over the custard and bananas to crown your pie.
Refrigerate your pie for at least two hours to let the flavors meld. This step ensures your banana cream pie is firm and easy to slice.
Grandma’s apple pie tastes even better when paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, adding a creamy contrast to the warm pie.
