1 2/3 c. water
3 egg yolk, beaten
2 tbsp. butter
Lemon juice from concentrate
3 tbsp. cornstarch
1 (14 oz.) can Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk

Whipped cream or Cool Whip

In heavy saucepan, dissolve cornstarch in water; stir in milk and egg yolks and stir until thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat; add butter and vanilla and cool slightly. Slice 2 bananas, dip in lemon juice and drain. Arrange the bananas on the bottom of the prepared pie crust. Pour filling over bananas; cover and chill for 4 to 5 hours or until set.

You may want to dip the bananas in lemon juice before topping the pie, especially if you are not going to serve it for some time.
