Bananas with Custard

Summer really has you craving for something cold and chilling. Here's a recipe for a dessert which is good for any time of the day...it also happens to be one of my favourites. It’s very simple, requires very few ingredients and is ready in a snap!


Bananas with Custard:

You will need:

500 ml Whole Milk
25 gms. Vanilla flavoured Custard powder (Recommended :Brown & Polson)
3-4 tbsp. Crystal sugar
2 ripe banana













  • Take 2-3 tbsps of milk from the 500 ml and mix with the custard powder to make a thin paste without any lumps.
  • Bring remaining milk to a boil.Add the sugar and stir till sugar dissolves.
  • Now add the custard paste to the boiling milk and stir continuosly on low flame till it thickens about 2 mins. When the custard coats the back of a spoon in a thin layer, remove from stove and let cool completely and then refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
  • Slice ripe bananas and place in a serving bowl. Top with cooled custard.
  • Garnish with fresh cream and cherries or chocolate syrup and grated chocolate/cherries…or simply spike it with your choice of toppings.










Go on and indulge..!! :)

  8. Hey Namratha,

    This time when coming back from India, I picked a couple of custard packs in different flavors (you don't get all flavors here I guess), I am so glad that I hit your blog and found some amazing recipes using custard. I tried this custard today & I should tell you, my husband didn't even wait to get it cooled properly and it is almost finished...lol...so it was a hit
    Thanks for all the recipes & keep posting. I am gonna be a regular visitor now.
