1/4 cup cornstarch
1/3 cup sugar
2 cups 8th Continent® vanilla soymilk
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon butter or trans-fat-free margarine
1 ripe medium banana, thinly sliced
1 cup frozen fat-free whipped topping, thawed
8 squares cinnamon- or chocolate-flavored graham cracker crumbs, crushed (1/2 cup)
Caramel or chocolate fat-free topping, if desired
1. In 2-quart stainless steel or nonstick saucepan (do not use aluminum because pudding will discolor), stir together cornstarch and sugar. Gradually stir in soymilk and egg yolks with wire whisk. Heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil 1 minute, stirring constantly; remove from heat. Stir in vanilla and butter. Cover surface of pudding with plastic wrap to prevent skin from forming. Refrigerate about 30 minutes or until cool.
