Banana Cream Pie

Use these three ingredients in place of the can of sweetened condensed milk - 1/3 cup and 2 tablespoons evaporated milk, 1 cup sugar and 3 tablespoons butter. Tried this and Steve said it tasted great!  Mini pie proportions below.

1 (9-inch) baked pastry shell
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 2/3 cups water
1 (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
3 egg yolks, beaten
2 tablespoons margarine or butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 medium bananas
Lemon juice
Whipping cream or Cool Whip

In heavy medium sauce pan, dissolve cornstarch in water; stir in sweetened condensed milk and egg yolks. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat; add margarine and vanilla. Cool slightly. Slice bananas; dip in lemon juice and drain. Arrange on bottom of pasty shell. Pour filling over bananas; cover. Chill 4 hours or until set. Serve with whipping cream
