Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

Custard:

  • ⅔ cup white sugar

  • ¼ cup cornstarch

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 3 cups milk

  • 4 large egg yolks, beaten

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 1 (9 inch) deep dish pie crust, baked and cooled

  • 1 large banana, sliced

Meringue Topping:

  • 4 large egg whites

  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C.)

  2. Combine sugar, cornstarch, and salt for custard in a large saucepan or double boiler until well mixed. Stir in milk and egg yolks; whisk until all ingredients are thoroughly combined. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thickened. Remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla.
