1/2 cup (2.25 oz.) all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon table salt
3 cups half-and-half
2 tablespoons (1 oz.) salted butter
1/4 teaspoon coconut extract
3 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided
3 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup (2 oz.) powdered sugar
1 (11-oz.) package vanilla wafers
6 small ripe bananas, sliced 1/4 to 1/2 inch

Directions:
Whisk egg yolks in a medium bowl until thick and lemon colored (about 1 minute).

Stir together sugar, flour, and salt in a large heavy saucepan; gradually whisk in half-and-half. Whisking constantly, bring mixture just to a boil over medium (about 8 to 10 minutes). Remove from heat.

Gradually whisk about one-fourth of hot sugar mixture into yolks; gradually add yolk mixture to remaining hot sugar mixture, whisking constantly. Return to heat; cook over medium, whisking constantly, 1 minute.

Remove from heat, and whisk in butter, coconut extract, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Transfer to a medium bowl, and place plastic wrap directly on warm filling; cool completely (about 2 hours).

Beat cream and remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla at medium-high speed with an electric mixer until foamy; gradually add powdered sugar, and beat until medium peaks form.

Personal Notes:
This new take on classic Southern banana pudding offers a taste of the tropics. Make the whole recipe to feed a crowd, family-style, or halve and serve in individual bowls. Keep banana slices from turning brown by tossing with 2 tablespoons lemon juice.
