Banana Cream Pie

1 baked 9" pie shell
3 large bananas

Mix together in saucepan:
2/3 cup sugar
3 Tbs. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. salt

Gradually stir in:
3 cups milk and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil 1 min. Remove from heat and gradually stir at least half of the hot mixture into 3 slightly beaten egg yolks (I use the whole egg). Then blend the hot mixture back in saucepan. Boil 1 minute more, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in 1 Tbs. butter and 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla. Cool filling.

Slice the bananas into the pie shell and pour filling over them. Chill. I serve this with sweetened whipped cream.
