I'm going to take this to the family Memorial Day Picnic. They'll love it!


That is the way I make my banana pudding, it is so much better than with the instant pudding that most people use nowadays.


I make my banana pudding this way too.... alot better than the instant puddings... I think...


Most banana puddings use instant pudding, which is just not as good - and it's not really any easier. This recipe is more like my mom's, except she doesn't use salt or butter. One thing we found out is that if you use bananas that are just barely ripe, it all tastes so much better the next day. IF it lasts that long!


Okay I'm going to have to hide 4 bananas from my grandkids to make this. Looks yummy.


I made such a pig out of myself tonight. This recipe is fantastic. The filling is so rich. Every bit a 5 in my book!!! Great post!


Sounds good!
