  • 3 medium bananas , quartered lengthwise and thinly sliced

Add eggs and egg whites, 1 at a time, beating until blended after each addition. (If desired, eggs and egg whites may be added 1 at a time and beaten vigorously with a wooden spoon instead of using the mixer.)

  5. Split éclairs using a serrated knife, starting at 1 long side without cutting through opposite side. Pull out and discard soft dough inside.
  6. Stir bananas into Vanilla Pastry Cream. Carefully spoon about 1/4 cup pastry cream mixture into each éclair; close top of each éclair over fillling. Top evenly with Chocolate Glaze and drizzle with Chocolate Glaze. Chill éclairs for 4 hours.
