For a richer flavor, use whole milk or half-and-half in the pudding. To prevent the banana slices from browning, toss them lightly with lemon juice. If you prefer a no-bake version, skip the meringue and baking steps. Simply chill the assembled pudding in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
