Old Fashioned Banana Pudding

Today I'm going to share a yummy recipe for Old Fashioned Banana Pudding, the kind you cook. My Papa loves it! I made it for him instead of a cake on his birthday, so I thought I'd take a little extra time to type it out for everyone to try. I wish I could take credit for it, but it's not my recipe. I got this a few years ago from a lady at church, Mrs. Betty Danford. I'm so glad she shared it! I am posting a few pictures so that you can see how mine looks. I wish I had more to share and that they were better quality!!! Anyway, here goes...

Old Fashioned Banana Pudding

Ingredients:
  • 3/4 Cups Sugar
  • 3Tbs. Plain Flour
  • 3 Large Eggs (separate whites into another bowl and refrigerate)
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla
  • 2 Cups Milk
  • Vanilla Wafers
  • 3 Bananas
In a heavy sauce pan, combine sugar and flour, mixing well.



Add milk, beaten egg yolks, and vanilla.



Cook on medium heat, stirring CONSTANTLY until mixture thickens. Remove from heat. In a casserole dish (I use a 8X8 baking dish), layer wafers, bananas and pudding mixture.

Whip egg whites until stiff. Add 2 Tbs. sugar and whip until stiff peaks form. They will look something like this...


Spread on top of pudding.


Brown top in the oven. Be careful not to over-brown.


Enjoy!!! It is delicious warm or cold!

Be sure to let me know how yours turns out!!!

Most recipes that I use are not original to me.  I almost always use recipes from friends or the internet.  This recipe, however is one of my own.  After I graduated from college and before I got a teaching job, I was a waitress at a small restaurant in town, MD's.  Some of you may remember it.  They served a delicious potato salad...This is my version! Ranch Potato Salad Ingredients: 3-4 lbs. Red Potatoes, washed and sliced 1/2  small red onion, finely chopped 1 pkg. Ranch dressing mix 2 (3oz) jars real bacon bits 16 oz sour cream 1/4 -1/2 cup mayonnaise salt and pepper to taste Directions: Boil potatoes until tender, but still firm.  Rinse in cold water and drain.  Mix remaining ingredients.  Pour mixture over potatoes and toss.  Refrigerate overnight to allow flavors to blend.

THIS IS THE DAY THAT THE LORD HAS MADE!

...And what a wonderful day it's been to be in the House of the Lord! As I indicated in my last post, we have had revival services at Ino this week. God definitely showed up! There have been late nights and tired bodies, but every minute of sleep lost and sacrificed time has been worth it. Jamey Ragle did an outstanding job of putting this conference together. Several of our area sister churches, as well as our association, provided financial assistance and other means of support. It took a lot of planning (this crusade has been several years in the making) to make this happen. We want God to have all of the glory! Each night, Jamey Ragle spoke, a different person led worship and yet another spoke, too. Jamey is a gifted evangelist who communicates the gospel so well. He incorporates humor into the Word to deliver a truly unforgettable and life changing message of hope. Many lives were changed because of his willingness to share the Gospel this week. Monday night we heard from Rev....
