1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons ice water
1/2 teaspoon vinegar
Filling
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup whole milk
4 egg yolks, beaten
1 teaspoon butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 ripe bananas, sliced
Topping
1 can whipped cream
1/2 cup slivered almonds
Beat together the butter and shortening until smooth and creamy and chill until firm. Sift together the flour, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl.
Using a fork, cut the butter and shortening into the dry ingredients, until the mixture has a consistent texture. Mix egg yolk, ice water, and vinegar
into the dough, then form it into a ball and refrigerate it for 1 hour so that it will be easier to work with. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. When
the dough has chilled, roll it out and press it into a 9-inch pie plate. Press parchment paper or aluminum foil into the crust and weight the crust down
with ceramic pie weight or another pie pan filled with dried beans.This will prevent the crust from putting up and distorting.Bake for 15 minutes,
then remove the weigh or pan filled with beans and prick the crust with a fork to allow steam to escape.Bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, or
until the crust is golden brown.Let the crust cool. Make the filling by sifting together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt into a medium saucepan.
Blend the milk and eggs in a medium bowl, then add the mixture to the dry ingredients and cook over medium heat stirring constantly for 6 to 8
minutes or until the mixture boils and thickens, then cook for 1 minute more.
Remove the filling from the heat, and mix in the vanilla. Put plastic wrap on the surface of the filling and let it cool to about room temperature. Once
cooled to room temperature remove the plastic wrap and add the sliced bananas.
Stir. Pour the filing into the pie shell and chill for a couple of hours before serving.Slice across the pie 3 times to make 6 large slices.Serve each slice
topped fresh whipped cream and slivered almonds. SUBSTITUTION: Use one of the below in place of homemade crust. 9 inch Pie Crust Baked
and Cooled Or 9 inch Graham Cracker Pie Crust (I prefer to bake mine about 10-15 minutes at 350 degrees.)
