Pretty good recipe, but it needed some adjustment. Here's what I changed...Too sweet! Used 1/2 cup sugar - 2 egg yolks; used whites for meringue - 3 cups whole milk; no evaporated - 1 tsp. vanilla - 1/2 box Nilla wafers. Perfect amount of ingredients for an 8x8 inch casserole dish.

Delicious! I, too, used sweetened condensed milk as that was what I had, and just cut the sugar in half. It turned out great!

Had the same problem as a couple of other reviewers: pudding wouldn't set. :( But we seem to be in a minority here, so maybe not the fault of the recipe.

This was absolutely delicious. I have never been fond of banana pudding but my husband likes it and he wanted me to make it for dessert for our New Years day dinner. I doubled the recipe and added a dash of banana flavoring when I added the vanilla. The pudding was so creamy. I will be making this again you can bet. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe.

I can already tell this will be a KEEPER. My beloved husband is quite picky about his banana pudding(s), and I knew right off the bat that this had the flavor and texture he loves. You can't get this in an instant pudding, and honestly-- I never should have gone the "instant" route to begin with! 5 Stars for the Old Kentucky Home Recipe! :D

Yum, Yum. Just like grandma used to make. Following the suggestion of other reviewers, I used cream instead of evaporated milk. I wasn't able to use all the pudding because it had some lumps that I strained out, there is NO way this serves 11. I served it to 4 and there was very little left-just scraped bowls and happy faces.

Who knew pudding was so easy to make. This was a bit more custard in texture then I would have liked. Next time, and there will be many, I'll scale back on the cornstarch or not let it heat so much/long. I'd like it a bit more creamy than custard-y.

This was so good!! My family loved it. This is my new favorite banana pudding recipe. It does not feed as many as it says. I have to double it for my kids and grandkids.

This banana pudding was the bomb. I only used the custard portion of this recipe. I stacked vanilla wafers and bananas and the custard until I have cookies left on top. Only thing I would change is the amount of sugar. I found this to be slightly sweet, but overall very good!!!
