I am not sure this is what you are looking for but in the south (USA) folks call this banana pudding, but coming from the north I would call this banana cream pie. When I made this the first time, home grown southerners said "just like my Mama makes". Banana Pudding
Prep Time: 1 hourYield: 8 to 12 servings 3/4 cup sugar 3 eggs, separated 2 tablespoons flour Dash salt 2 cups milk 1 teaspoon vanilla Nilla Wafers 4 bananas 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar Prepare a double boiler. Mix together sugar, egg yolks, flour and salt. Add milk and mix again. Heat on stove until the custard sticks to the sides of pan, approximately 20 minutes. Add vanilla after mixture has thickened. Let cool. To assemble: Put few drops of pudding in the bottom of a 2-quart dish and spread around. Layer Nilla Wafers and cut up 2 bananas, add 1/2 of custard, repeat layer and arrange wafers around the sides. In a separate bowl beat egg whites with 1/2 cup sugar and cream of tartar until it forms stiff peaks, spread on pudding and bake in a preheated 425 oven for 4 minutes, just brown on top. Serve warm or cold. Any idiot can face a crisis; it is this day-to-day living that wears you out….
