Banana Chocolate Pudding Pie

Step 2 Bananas, Split!

You want the bananas to go from solid, slightly concave fruit to delicious mush. You could throw them in a blender or a food processor and hit a button, or you could do it the more elongated (but satisfying) we-don't-own-a-blender-way.

Needless to say, we don't own a blender. Here's how to mix it all:

Cut the bananas into smaller slices, then cook them in a saucepan until they become mushier. Mush them manually at the same time until the chunks start to disappear and you get a relatively consistent texture. While you are taking out your anger on your bananas, mix in a few squirts of honey (if you don't have a squeeze bottle, a few spoonfuls), a few dashes of cinnamon, and a small quantity of milk. I added in the milk to make the mixture creamier; if you want to substitute this with something else, it might work equally as effectively or even more so.

If your mixture is too runny, you can add a thickener, such as cornstarch, to help coagulate.

Once you have your mush, you can take it off of the heat to cool a little. If it looks something like vomit, you're on the right track.
