Peanut Butter-Banana Pie
- Crust:
- 1 cup reduced-calorie vanilla wafer crumbs (about 30 cookies)
- 2 tablespoons butter or stick margarine, melted and cooled
- 1 large egg white, lightly beaten
- Cooking spray
- Filling:
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 3 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/3 cups 1% low-fat milk
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups sliced banana
- 1 1/2 cups frozen reduced-calorie whipped topping, thawed
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0.
- To prepare crust, combine first 3 ingredients in a bowl, tossing with a fork until moist. Press into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350u0b0 for 12 minutes; cool crust on a wire rack.
- To prepare the filling, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a small heavy saucepan. Gradually add the milk, stirring with a whisk until well-blended. Cook over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil; cook for 1 minute, stirring with a whisk. Gradually add about 1/3 cup hot custard to beaten eggs, stirring constantly with a whisk. Return egg mixture to pan. Cook over medium heat until thick (for about 1 minute); stir constantly. Remove from heat, and stir in peanut butter and vanilla. Cool slightly.
- Arrange banana slices in bottom of prepared crust; spoon filling over bananas. Press plastic wrap onto the surface of filling; chill 4 hours. Remove plastic wrap. Spread whipped topping evenly over filling. Chill.
