Banana cream pie is a classic. One of the comfort foods you remember from your childhood. Martha Stewart had this recipe we decided to try. The pie crust is The Perfect Pie Crust.
I have added this recipe to Sweet As Sugar Cookies Blog, Sweets for a Saturday #8.

Make the filling:
In a medium saucepan, whisk together pudding mix and milk.
Place over medium heat and cook, stirring, until mixture thickens and comes to a boil.
Remove from heat and transfer to a medium bowl.
Cover with plastic wrap, pressing down on the surface to prevent a skin from forming.
Transfer to refrigerator and let chill.
Fold 1/4 cup whipped cream, coconut and bananas into pudding.
Pour filling into cooled pie crust, spreading evenly with a spatula.
Add remaining 1 cup whipped cream over the top of the pie.
Sprinkle with remaining toasted coconut.

Does that pie ever look so creamy and delicious! One of my favourite pies ever is Martha Stewart's coconut cream tart so I have no doubt this is amazing too. I love that there's coconut in this pie also. Yum!
Mmmm that does indeed look incredibly creamy! Oh man now I have a major craving!
My mouth is watering ..... looks divine.
Now this is a divine creation. I am really craving a slice and can never resist banana cream pie.
Isn't this the way that all bananas were meant to be eaten? Yum. I have a sweet treat linky party going on at my blog and I'd be delighted if you'd stop by and link your pie up. http://sweet-as-sugar-cookies.blogspot.com/2011/03/sweets-for-saturday-8.html
