Strawberry Banana Cream Pie

With all the five star reviews, I was expecting more from this recipe. Although this pie makes a pretty presentation, we thought the custard, which takes center stage in this recipe, was pretty bland; the flavor of the raw, unsweetened strawberries and the banana did not make up for this fact. I think the recipe might be improved by sweetening the berries a bit, or perhaps using a strawberry glaze with them. The custard might be improved by adding a little banana extract in addition to the vanilla.

Yum. Enough said. Definitely increased the number of strawberries, decreased the amount of banana. I think it helped the bananas not to overpower the flavor.

We really loved the flavor of this. It was so, so good. Very banana-y; I think next time I will add more strawberries. Very easy to put together as well. I thought the appearance was a little off, perhaps this is because I did something wrong, but the custard part was kind of brown from the vanilla. Also, the custard was hard to spread, but that may have been because I let it get too cool before working with it. All in all, a great recipe! Very good! I will definitely make this again!

Hey Kari, this pie was outstanding. The cream filling was as good as any I have tasted and I loved the use of both strawberries and bananas. Our strawberry plants are producing like crazy and this pie was a great way to use them. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
