Instructions
Making the Custard:
- In a pan, heat the water and sugar until the sugar is dissolved.
- Whisk together the eggs and egg yolks in a bowl.
- Slowly add the hot liquid to the egg mixture while whisking continuously.
- Pour this mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat for about 10 minutes or until it thickens.
- Add the gelatin, vanilla bean, and salt to the custard and whisk until combined.
- Stir in the banana puree and lemon juice and cook for another 2 minutes or until everything is well incorporated.
- Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Assembling the Parfait:
- In a parfait glass or dish, layer the custard and banana slices.
- Sprinkle some sugar and lemon juice on top.
- Add a few of the vanilla wafers around the edges of the glass to make a crust.
- Repeat layering until all ingredients are used up.
Making the Whipped Topping:
- In a clean bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and yogurt until soft peaks form.
- Fill a piping bag with the whipped topping and pipe onto the top of the parfait.
- Sprinkle some more vanilla wafers on top for garnish.
Notes
-For a stronger banana flavor, you can add some fresh banana puree to the custard.
-You can substitute moonshine with another spirit such as rum or whiskey for a different flavor profile.
-Make sure to let the custard cool completely before assembling the parfait so that it doesn’t melt the whipped topping.
