This old fashion Banana Cream Pie will take you back to "the good ole days". It is a simple recipe but it is delicious. If you do not have a favorite pie crust recipe, try this Self-Rising Flour Pie Crust for your pie shell. Busy, in a hurry, or just don't like to make pie crust, there are some great ready-made crust in your grocer's freezer.

 

 

Yum!

I love this recipe! It's easy to make and tastes Gr8! The 55 minutes prep time seems too long. It seemed a lot quicker to me.
