Step-by-Step Instructions
First, I start by prepping my bananas. I slice them into thin rounds and set them aside to ensure they’re ready when I need them. Then, I grab a medium saucepan and combine the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and salt. Over medium heat, I continuously whisk the mixture until it thickens and bubbles. This step always fills my kitchen with an intoxicating creamy aroma! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
