Prepared Pie Crust, prebaked (I used the recipe from the New York Cheesecake so it was gluten free and it was perfect with this pie. Recipe follows at the end of the recipe.)
3 large egg yolks
1/2 C agave
3 TB arrowroot powder
pinch of sea salt
1 1/2 C milk
1 TB butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 C heavy cream or coconut cream
3 or 4 ripe but firm bananas, sliced
1. Beat the egg yolks in a heavy saucepan.
2. Add agave, arrowroot powder, and salt. Beat until well combined.
3. Stir in milk.
4. Place the pan over medium heat and add the butter. Stir constantly about 5 minutes, until the mixture is thick and bubbly. (It will go from a thick syrupy consistency to "custard" in an instant.)
5. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
6. Pour the custard into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap that rests gently on the surface of the custard to prevent a skin from forming. Chill for 2 or more hours.
7. Whip the cream until stiff.
8. Gently fold into the chilled custard.
9. Spoon approximately 1/3 of the custard mixture into the prebaked pie crust and spread evenly.
10. Layer the sliced bananas over the custard layer and top with the remaining custard. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 6-8 hours.
If desired top with more sliced bananas and Whipped Cream. Enjoy!
