Does anyone still make banana custard? It was a regular favourite in my childhood and given that I still live in a late 50s/early 60s timewarp...... It still is ;D...... I've just made one for tea   |

I don't know.
Recently I cut up a couple of bananas and poured some cold Bird's Ready-to-Serve Custard on them and presented them as pudding. It tasted quite nice. It's an old family recipe.
Is that banana custard?

A Worthy Topic!
It's one of those things that was killed off by school dinners! lumps of tasteless chewy stuff set off in a slightly more chewy yellow goo with gritty bits in!
Oddly enough - I sliced one banana to enjoy with my imitation Aldi Shreddies this morning afternoon!
Banana Custard made at home though is quite enjoyable though. However - It's not something I've done at home - because for years since I was little - we would enjoy mashed banana in evaporated milk! (Oddly enough again) much the way (evaporated milkwise) I enjoy my custard!

I'm sad now...spent most of my life not eating fruit and then 3 years ago rediscovered bananannas.... ....soon found out that half a banana will bind me up for the best part of a fortnight.  |

Is that banana custard? Yup trubbs that's 'nana custard. Never used the ready-to-serve cussie though.Bird's powder made up is my way. Nice that there's two of us that won't bugger about with "real" custard.Egg yolks and cream and endless faffing about.....life is too short.  |

If there's anything special to the ingredients! You must share! There are lots of variations I've tried...... Fresh orange segments(or the tinned mandarins) go well with banana......so do raspberries. Trifle sponges sandwiched with raspberry jam. And to make it a bit special,medium sherry sprinkled on the sponges.(I did try banana liqueur once but it was too sweet for my taste) When the custard has cooled and set try putting grated chocolate on top. |
