Banana Pie - Retake 3

Thank god, after 3 retakes I was successfully able to make a Banana pie at home. I made one few months back. Another attempt was made last week where it completely backfired.

However, this time I took extra precaution to make it look right. Just few things done better

  • While adding eggs to pie batter, added only two. Only yellow portion added. White portion removed since it contains extra water

  • Added balanced mixture of all purpose flour. Avoided adding extra afterwards just to thicken consistency. This avoided strange white formation on the pie top

  • Put less milk initially. Added little more in the later stages based on the level of batter consistency

  • Didn't allow batter to overflow over pie crust. This avoided spilling of pie all over the place while baking

  • Didn't put pie inside oven for extended period of time. Took it out after approximately 20-25 minutes

  • Put it in the freezer for 1 hour before cutting it into pieces

Here are some of the pictures

(Apologies if I am putting too much of them here. But I am so excited because I succeeded after a failed attempt plus I had more opportunity to garnish it with creative designs too)

It took me almost an hour to bake a pie, another hour to cool it in the fridge and 30 more minutes to decorate it and arrange official photo session.
