π PawPaw's Homemade Banana Pudding (From Scratch!)
|
My grandfather was a master in the kitchen. While my grandmother ran a thriving real estate business, my grandfather found great joy in growing tropical plants, bringing home massive grocery loads, and cooking food from scratch for his family. Among the foods that I remember the most were his macaroni and cheese, chicken spaghetti, and his homemade banana pudding recipe!

I know he would love it (and you will too!)!

Green grape pie is a vintage dessert recipe with a similar flavor profile to apple pie, with a crisp texture that remains even after baking! Made with einkorn flour and maple syrup, this grape pie recipe is a classic! When my son was about 5 years old, he asked for a green grape pie. I had never heard of such a thing, but I decided on a simple recipe and got to work. I told my dad about the strange request as the pie was baking, and he started laughing. Apparently, it had been his...
