My mom has been making this for as long as I can remember. We thought that we lost the recipe but as she was going through her recipe drawer - there is was! We were so happy because mom turned 86 this year and if we had lost it, I know we would never have made it again. Hope you enjoy it like our family does!

Ingredients

  • 1 - precooked pie shell
  • 1/2 cup sugar or a little more

How To Make mom's banana glaze pie

  • Step 1
    Boil over low fire (after you have mixed all ingredients above except vanilla). Stirring constantly until it thickens.
  • Step 2
    Remove from range and add drop of yellow food color and vanilla.
  • Step 3
    Pour over sliced bananas in precooked pie shell while mixture is still hot. You will need enough bananas to slice a couple of layers into the pie shells before you add the glaze. You can also sub bananas with other fruit - we just always used bananas!
  • Step 4
    After cooling, top with whipped cream that is sweetened.
