SOUTHERN BANANA PUDDING
Not-too-sweet vanilla custard gets a blanket of soft toasted meringue in this Southern-style banana pudding. We let the pudding base sit overnight so the cookies soften and the banana flavor infuses the custard, but if you like your cookies crisp, top the pudding with meringue and bake without resting.

Steps:
- Heat 2 1/2 cups of the milk in a large saucepan over medium heat until steaming.
- Whisk 3/4 cup of the sugar, the cornstarch and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Whisk in the egg yolks and the remaining 1/2 cup milk.
- Whisk half of the hot milk into the egg mixture until smooth, and then gradually whisk the egg-milk mixture into the milk in the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture boils. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and let the mixture come to a simmer. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until it has thickened to a puddinglike consistency, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter and vanilla.
- Layer a third of the pudding, half the banana slices and half the vanilla wafers in a 9-inch square baking dish. Layer with half the remaining pudding, all the remaining banana slices and all the remaining wafers. Top with the last of the pudding. Cover with plastic wrap pressed directly on the pudding surface, and refrigerate overnight to soften the cookies.
- Position a rack in the upper third of the oven, and preheat to 350 degrees F. Bring the egg whites to room temperature. Beat the egg whites and cream of tartar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment on medium speed until frothy. Increase the speed to medium-high, and slowly sprinkle in the remaining 1/2 cup sugar a tablespoon at a time, whipping for 15 seconds after each addition, until glossy firm peaks form. Spread the meringue on top of the pudding with an offset spatula so it reaches the edges of the pan. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve warm or chilled.

SOUTHERN BANANA PUDDING RECIPE
Nothing tops off a great home-cooked Southern meal any better than down home, made-from-scratch, banana pudding. Or, as we sometimes call it...'naner puddin'. It's just downright good and most definitely...a Southern tradition.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Separate 3 eggs, set the whites aside for later use in the meringue.
- Add 3 cups of milk to a medium saucepan. Place over LOW heat on your stovetop.
- Slowly add flour, whisking continually to avoid lumps.
- Slowly stir in 1/2 cup of sugar, whisking continually until fully dissolved.
- Use a fork and break up the egg yolks.
- Slowly add the egg yolks to the saucepan, whisking continually to avoid making scrambled eggs. It's very important to stay with the cooking process at this point. Keep stirring.
- Increase the heat gradually up to about medium as you constantly whisk the pudding mixture.
- Using a candy thermometer, bring the mixture up to 170 degrees. Continue to stir it constantly as it thickens. When it reaches 170 degrees, remove from heat but continue to stir.
- Add the teaspoon of Vanilla Extract and continue to stir off and on as it cools down. The mixture must cool down before you begin to assemble the banana pudding.
- When fairly cool, spread a light layer of the pudding in a casserole dish.
- Add a layer of Vanilla Wafers. Reserve about 5 or 6 wafers for topping later.
- Add a layer of sliced bananas.
- Add a layer of pudding mixture, spreading it out to the edges of the dish.
- Repeat the layer process as needed, ending with a layer of the pudding mixture on top.
- Crumble the 5 or 6 reserved wafers and sprinkle on top. If not adding the meringue, bake this at 350 degrees for about 10-15 minutes. Let cool and serve. Hopefully you'll try the meringue.

REAL "DOWN HOME" SOUTHERN BANANA PUDDING
Southern families, regardless of background, have some traditions in common. One is biscuits and gravy for breakfast at least once a week. Another is banana pudding, or "nanner pudd'n'" as some call it, for dessert. It's delicious no matter what time of day you decide to indulge. I've had it several times for breakfast. Banana pudding is a favorite of most Southerners; and after you've tasted it, you'll know why. Another favorite that is just as good, in my opinion, is banana-pineapple pudding; but that's another recipe. After you try this recipe, you'll be a Southerner at heart. Speaking of heart, bananas are one of the best things you can do for your heart. Bananas are rich in potassium and phosphorous; electrolytes necessary for a healthy heartbeat. So, good news! Not only is banana pudding delicious, it's good for you, too! Oh, if you can resist, put it in the fridge overnight. Banana pudding is better the day after it's made, which is hard to believe when you've tasted it freshly made. In any case, it should be at least cooled to room temperature before serving; so make it a few hours before you intend to serve it, if you're planning to serve it at a particular meal. This is a recipe that uses homemade filling, so a little work is involved. The filling recipe is a family recipe; but the bananas and vanilla wafers are nature's and the cookie company's, respectively. The meringue is a standard meringue recipe that can be found in any cookbook in the known universe. Remember that cold eggs do not yield as much volume as room temperature eggs, and they take longer to peak; so, if you refrigerate your eggs, set them out for an hour or so before you make this recipe. Now, without further ado, here we go...

Steps:
- BANANA-WAFER PREPARATION:.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Slice the bananas crosswise into 1/4" thick round slices.
- In a large, oven safe bowl, or in an 8x8x2-inch pan or glass baking dish, line the bottom and sides with a layer of vanilla wafers.
- On top of the layer of wafers, place one layer of bananas. Repeat, alternating a layer of wafers and a layer of banana slices until the bowl or dish is filled to within 1/4 to 1/2-inch below the rim.
- THE FILLING:.
- Separate the eggs, being careful not to nick the yolks. Reserve the egg whites and set aside.
- Combine evaporated milk and water.
- In a large sauce pan, mix flour, sugar, and egg yolks until well blended.
- Mix in milk slowly, stirring constantly.
- Place pan on the range eye and bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
- As soon as mixture reaches boiling point, reduce heat to medium, stirring constantly until desired thickness is achieved. Filling should be thick but pourable.
- Remove from heat.
- Stir in vanilla extract.
- Immediately pour over wafer-banana layers, jiggling the dish to ensure that filling covers all layers and there are no air pockets.
- THE MERINGUE:.
- TIP - If you do not have cream of tartar, you can use 1/2 tsp of lemon juice as a satisfactory substitute. 1/4 tsp lemon juice = 1/8 tsp cream of tartar.
- TIP - Cold egg whites will not yield as much volume as room temperature egg whites and will take longer to peak.
- Beat room-temperature egg whites with vanilla and cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
- Gradually add sugar, beating until stiff and glossy peaks form and all sugar is dissolved.
- Spoon meringue over banana pudding, smoothing the top and sealing it to the edge of the bowl or baking dish.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes, or until meringue is golden.
- Cool to room temperature or chill in refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours before serving.
- Banana pudding's flavor is best the day after it is made.
- 9 Servings.

GRANDMA'S BANANA PUDDING
My grandma ran a country club and a restaurant in her day. She can make amazing food, but sometimes it's hard to get a recipe from her because she doesn't measure anything and makes everything from memory. While letting her talk it out, I was able to get this banana pudding and a few other recipes written down. Enjoy!
