Banana Custard Pie Recipe with Stevia Sweet Drops

This banana custard pie recipe is sugar free. The custard for this pie cooks on the stovetop and needs no further baking. You have your choice of crust: a regular pie crust, pre-baked, or a graham cracker crust. Either kind will go beautifully with the banana-custard filling.\n\n \n\n[caption id="attachment_34258" align="alignright" width="300"] Banana Custard Cream Pie Recipe with Stevia.[/caption]\n\nNote: The custard calls for 3 large egg yolks, beaten. Separate the eggs ahead of time, placing the yolks in a small bowl covered tightly with plastic wrap, and let the yolks come to room temperature. Beat the yolks with a fork shortly before using. You can use the egg whites for some other purpose.\n
