   • In a mixing bowl, beat the egg yolks with sugar until creamy and well combined.
   • Add milk, a pinch of salt, banana flavor (if using), and cornstarch. Mix until smooth.
   • Transfer the mixture to a saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Alternatively, use a double boiler for more controlled heat.

2. Layer the Ingredients:

   • Line the bottom and sides of a baking dish with vanilla wafers, creating a base for your pudding.
   • Once the pudding mixture has thickened to a custard-like consistency, pour about half of it over the layer of wafers in the dish.

3. Add Banana Slices:

   • Slice the ripe bananas and layer them over the pudding in the baking dish.
   • Place another layer of vanilla wafers over the banana slices.
   • Pour the remaining pudding mixture over the second layer of wafers, ensuring even coverage.

4. Optional Meringue Topping:

   • If desired, use the egg whites to prepare a meringue topping for your banana pudding. Spread it evenly over the top layer of pudding.

5. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Allow the pudding to cool slightly before serving, or chill it in the refrigerator for a few hours for a cold treat.
   • Serve portions of the homemade banana pudding on dessert plates or in bowls, garnished with extra banana slices or vanilla wafers if desired.
