Old-Fashioned Banana Pudding Made Easy image

I used to love this tasty banana pudding as a child. My mom would make it sometimes for dessert with our Sunday dinner or if we were having company. It's rich and delicious and has a yummy meringue topping, but very easy! I hope you enjoy this old-timey, but easy recipe.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 box vanilla pudding, cooked variety, large sized
1 box vanilla wafers, large size
4 or 5 medium bananas, very ripe
2 large egg yolks
3 c milk
MERINGUE
4 large egg whites, room temperature
1/2 c sugar

  • 2. In a casserole dish, layer vanilla wafers on the bottom and pour about one cup of pudding over the wafers. Peel and slice bananas and layer half of the sliced bananas over the pudding. Crush some of the wafers and layer over the bananas. Add another cup of pudding layering remaining bananas, more crushed vanilla wafers. Cover with final cup of pudding. Mix meringue as follows.
  • 3. MERINGUE: Add egg whites to mixing bowl and sprinkle with salt. Beat until foamy and gradually add sugar while beating constantly. Beat until stiff peaks form and then spread over pudding.
  • 4. Bake at 325 degrees for about 10 minutes or until meringue is set and golden.
  • 5. ABOUT THE VANILLA WAFERS: There's not really any precise amount to add, it's just a matter of taste. Just add as little or as many as you like. I like a lot of them! :)
