Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 2 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 can condensed milk
  • pinch salt
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 3 cups chopped vanilla waferss
  • 1-2 bananas
  • whipped cream

Instructions

  • Mix flour, milk, condensed milk, salt, egg yolks and vanilla together.
  • Pour into a saucepan and cook over medium high heat and stir fairly consistently until thickened.
    This will take about 20 minutes.
  • You will want to watch over it and stir often so the mixture doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan and burn.
  • While your pudding is cooking, you will want to crush vanilla wafers and add a small layer to each of your small jars.
    I did this close by the stove, so I could continue to stir the pudding mixture.
  • After your pudding mixture is thickened, you will want to let it cool a bit.
    Then, add a small amount on top of the layer of vanilla wafers in your jars.
  • Top this layer with chopped up bananas, then repeat the process once more.
  • When you are ready to serve your banana pudding jars, top each one with whipped cream and a banana slice for garnish.

Notes

You can store the banana pudding jars in the fridge until ready to serve.
Top with the whipped cream right before serving.
