- Banana pudding consists of layers of vanilla custard, banana slices and vanilla wafers. The latter two ingredients are pretty much ready to go as soon as you buy them.

What follows are instructions for assembling a banana pudding using custard made from scratch.Wikipedia: Banana Pudding

Make the Banana Pudding
- The only step in making banana pudding that takes much time is making the custard. However, making your own custard rather than using a box mix can be much more satisfying. It can give a great sense of accomplishment and has a richer, more interesting taste than box pudding.
- Combine the cornstarch, sugar and salt in the top part of a large double boiler.
- Whisk in the milk.
- Cook the mixture in the double boiler until hot all the way through, or just beginning to bubble.
- Beat the egg yolks, then stir in a small amount of the hot milk mixture.
- Add the yolks to the double boiler.
- Continue to cook the custard until it thickens, stirring constantly.
- Remove the custard from the heat once it coats the back of a spoon.
- Stir in the butter and vanilla extract.
- Allow the custard to cool through.
- Alternate layers of vanilla wafers, pudding and bananas in your glass casserole.

Top the Pudding
- You can top or decorate your banana pudding in many ways. Keep in mind that if you leave the custard as a top layer, a milk skin may form over it.Baking911.com: Custard 101
- Cover the pudding with a top layer of whipped cream.
- Whip up a meringue and bake it on top of the pudding in the oven.FoodNetwork.com: Banana Pudding (Paula Dean)
