1 1/4 cups half-and-half
1 vanilla bean,split and seeded
2 egg yolks
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup strawberry jam
1/4 cup chopped white chocolate, melted
1 pint strawberries, hulled,sliced
2 bananas, sliced and tossed with small amount of lemon juice
Brush a thin layer of melted white chocolate on the inside of each baked tart shell and allow to set up. Divide the jam equally between tarts and spread evenly; slice 1/2 a banana very thin and place evenly over the jam; set aside.
In a small saucepan, add the milk,vanilla bean and scraped vanilla seeds; heat to a boil. While milk is heating up , beat the egg yolks, sugar and flour together until well combined. Temper the egg mixture by whisking in some hot milk ,; whisking until well combined. Pour egg/milk mixture back into the pan with the rest of the hot milk. Remove the vanilla pod.

Looks very delicious!
Thanks so much!
If I dont have vanilla bean pod, can I use vanilla extract? how much? And what size pan(s) could I substitute if I don’t have these nice long ones? (I want to make it someday for my sweetie)
Use 1 tsp pure vanilla extract. You could use a 9 inch round tart pan but you would not have enough for two. Use the extra in custard dishes with fresh fruit:)
thanks Maggie!
Beautiful in every way.
