Reviews
I made this last night so this is my personal opinion. It is a little too sweet for my liking. I would reduce the sugar by about 1/3 as bananas are naturally sweet, so there is no real need to have 1/2 cup sugar for that small amount of custard. The consistency is good but for those who are wondering if it is firm enough for pie filling, I suggest a teaspoon more cornstarch. A very easy recipe to work with. Thanks for sharing.

To field editor Hazel Fritchie of Palestine, Illinois - how creamy is this pudding? Would it hold up for slicing in a baked pie shell or graham cracker crust? If it's not thick enough, could I use unflavored gelatin to give it some body and not ruin the recipe? Thanks very much!
