Peel and Mash the Bananas: Start by peeling the 3 bananas and mashing them thoroughly with a fork or potato masher. You want the bananas to be smooth but still have a few small chunks for texture.

Set Aside the Bananas: Once mashed, set the bananas aside while you prepare the creamy pudding base.

Mix the Corn Starch and Milk: In a small bowl, combine 30g of corn starch with 200 ml of milk. Stir well until the corn starch is fully dissolved. This mixture will act as the thickening agent for the pudding.

Heat the Cream and Condensed Milk: In a medium saucepan, pour in 500 ml of cream and 150 ml of condensed milk. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently to ensure the condensed milk blends smoothly with the cream. You don’t want it to boil—just bring it to a simmer.

Add the Corn Starch Mixture: Once the cream and condensed milk mixture is simmering, slowly pour in the corn starch-milk mixture. Stir continuously to avoid any lumps. Keep stirring as the mixture thickens, which will take about 3-5 minutes. It should start to coat the back of a spoon.

Incorporate the Bananas: After the pudding base has thickened, reduce the heat to low and stir in the mashed bananas. Mix well until the bananas are fully incorporated into the creamy pudding base.

Cook for a Few More Minutes: Let the banana mixture cook on low heat for another 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Stir constantly to prevent the pudding from sticking to the bottom of the pan.

Remove from Heat: Once the pudding is thick and smooth, remove the saucepan from the heat.

Cool the Pudding: Pour the pudding into serving bowls or a large dish. Allow it to cool at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes. Afterward, cover the pudding with plastic wrap, making sure the wrap touches the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming.

Refrigerate: Place the covered pudding in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until fully set. The chilling process will help the pudding firm up and develop a silky texture.

Serve Chilled: Once the pudding is fully chilled and set, it’s ready to serve. Garnish with whipped cream, crushed cookies, or a drizzle of caramel sauce for added flavor and texture, or enjoy it as is for a pure banana cream experience.
