I don't know where I got this recipe but thank God for them who make it.It is great!!!
Banana pudding is a very simple, homey, and classic Southern dessert. There are really only two ways to make it -- the right way and the wrong way. There's no futzing with the ingredients or the preparation. Futz, and you have something different.
Let me take you step by step:
1/3 cup flour
2/3 cup sugar
2 cups milk
3 egg yolks, beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoons vanilla
1 package Nilla Wafers
3-5 bananas, sliced
Combine flour and sugar in a sauce pan. Gradually stir in milk. Then add egg yolks and salt.
stirring constantly (very important).Remove from heat and add vanilla.
and then one-half of the pudding in a deep dish.
Repeat until finish

- The right way: make a simple, homemade pudding on the stove top.
- The wrong way: make instant pudding.
- The right way: keep your pudding vanilla flavored. No squished bananas, no spices, no nothin'.
- The wrong way: make banana flavored, or any other flavored pudding.
- The right way: use ripe, but not overly ripe, sliced bananas
- The wrong way: use green or overly ripe bananas that you've squished, chopped, or cooked.
- The right way: use Nilla Wafers.
- The wrong way: use homemade or any store bought cookie other than a Nilla Wafer.
- The right way: alternately layer the three main components - cookies, bananas, pudding in that order. Repeat if necessary.
- The wrong way: not getting at least one layer of bananas and cookies underneath the pudding.
