Best Nanas Banana Pudding Recipes

NANNY'S SOUTHERN 'NANA PUDDIN'

Steps:

• 1. Combine sugar & flour in skillet on medium high heat. Mix egg yolks and milk in bowl and beat well. Add egg mixture to the flour & sugar in pan and stir well constantly until mixture thickens and begins to boil.
• 2. Remove pudding from the heat and add bananas. Mix together well. Line a glass dish large enough to hold the pudding mixture with 'Nilla wafers and pour pudding over the top of wafers (usually a 9 x 9 x 13" baking dish works well).
• 3. Layer meringue topping over the pudding and smooth over the top of the pudding to each edge. My recipe for meringue topping is listed below.
• 4. Place the dish under the oven broiler just until the meringue browns nicely.
• 5. Chill in the refrigerator for about an hour before serving...if you have the patience!
• 6. Meringue Topping: I use two large bowls for making my meringue, the bottom bowl I fill with about 3" of ice water, then I place the other bowl on top of the other to keep my egg whites chilled while I'm mixing them (metal or glass bowls work best for meringues). Place the egg whites in the bowl and mix on medium gradually adding up to 1 tbs of sugar (more or less according to your sweet tooth), until the eggs begin to form thick peaks. Keep adding sugar to taste and mixing until you have a thick meringue. Here is a great website for making the best meringue possible! http://whatscookingamerica.net/Eggs/perfectmeringue.htm

NANA'S BANANA PUDDING

Steps:

• Empty boxes of instant pudding mix in medium bowl. Mix in the milk and the sweetened condensed milk. Beat or mix (I like to beat the mix to get out all the lumps) the pudding mix until creamy.
• In a large bowl, layer a handful of the vanilla wafers, then a handful of the bananas, then about half the pudding mix, then about half the Cool Whip. Repeat the layers.
• Let sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

GRANNY'S NANA PUDDING

Steps:

• In a chilled bowl, with chilled beaters, beat the cream and confectioners' sugar together until soft peaks.
• Whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, pudding mix, half-and-half, sour cream and the salt in a large bowl.
• Reserve 4 to 6 cookies for garnish and layer half of the remaining cookies among the bottom of 4 to 6 16-ounce serving dishes (or mason jars), or in a trifle bowl (or other large glass serving dish). Next, drizzle half of the caramel over the cookies, then a layer of half the bananas, then half the pudding mixture. Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients. Top with the whipped cream and a butter cookie or cookies. Serve or chill up to overnight.
