Ingredients

  

Pastry

• 6 ounces Sugar
• 1 tsp Vanilla paste
• 14 ounces Butter
• 1 pound All purpose flour
• 1 Egg

Filling

• 1 1/2 Cups Milk
• 1/2 Cup Heavy cream
• 5 Egg yolks
• 1 Egg
• 3/4 Cup Granulated sugar
• 2 Tsp Vanilla paste/ Vanilla extract
• 1/4 Cup Cornstarch
• Pinch of Salt
• 1 Tbsp Unsalted butter (softened)

Topping

• 4 Ripe Bananas
• 1/2 Cup Apircot jelly

Instructions

 

To Make Pastry

• In a food processor add the sugar, butter, egg and vanilla paste. Pulse until smooth and then add the flour. Tip out onto a floured surface and mix to form a smooth dough.
• Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Preheat the oven to 350°.
• Roll out the pastry to about 1/4-inch thick and line a 9″ flan ring. Refrigerate for about 45 minutes.
• Blind bake using baking beans to hold the shape of the paste until the pastry shell is firm and golden brown.
• Remove from the oven, remove the baking beans and set aside.

To Make Filling

• In a heavy saucepan bring the milk and cream to a boil. Put the rest of the ingredients in a large bowl and whisk together. Pour the milk over the egg mixture and whisk.
• Once the milk is incorporated, pour the whole contents of the bowl back into the pan and return to the heat.
• Continue whisking the pastry cream until it thickens (about 4 minutes). Remove from the heat and spoon into the baked pastry shell. 

To Make Topping

• Slice the bananas into 1/4-inch discs and arrange neatly on top of the warm filling.
• Bring the apricot jelly to a boil in a small pan and brush over the top of the bananas.
