Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine sugar, flour, salt, egg yolks, milk and vanilla in a saucepan. Cook over low heat stirring constantly. Remove from heat when pudding thickens. Add butter.
Grease a two-quart baking dish, layer banana slices and vanilla wafers then cover with custard, continue with layers finishing with custard on top. Add wafer to sides of dish.
Prepare meringue. Combine water and cornstarch in a small saucepan and cook over low heat until thickened. Cool mixture.
Beat egg whites until foam and increasing in volume, slowly add sugar and Cream of Tartar. Continue to beat whip until soft peaks form. Add the cooled cornstarch mixture and whip until stiff peaks form. Spread over banana pudding and bake until lightly browned. Watch closely.
Serve warm or cold.

Prepare custard before slicing bananas.

Tip: Mix 2 tsp of Ball Fruit-Fresh with 3 T of water and dip banana slices to help keep them from turning as dark.
