Old-Fashioned Banana Cream Pie

5️⃣ Cool and Serve

1. Let the pie cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours until fully set.
2. Slice and serve chilled for the best texture and flavor.
3. Optional: Garnish with whipped cream, toasted coconut, or a dusting of cinnamon before serving.

💡 Tips

• Extra creamy: Add a splash of heavy cream or an extra egg yolk to the custard for extra richness.
• Banana freshness: Brush banana slices with lemon juice to prevent browning before layering in the crust.
• Make it ahead: Prepare the custard and crust a day in advance. Assemble the pie a few hours before serving.
• Top with meringue: Use your leftover egg whites to make a fluffy meringue topping for a traditional finish.
