Notes

Tips: If you are ok with cooked bananas, you could pour the milk-egg mixture over the crust and bananas and bake. With this method, you could even top with a meringue before baking. The homemade vanilla cookie crust is fabulous, but if you are pressed for time, you can make the crust with about half a box of Nilla Wafers crushed (1 ½ cups) and mixed with 6 tbsp melted butter. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. If you make cookies with the dough recipe, scoop with a 2 tbsp scoop onto a silicon mat or parchment paper lined sheet pan. Bake for 17 – 18 minutes. If you wish to save the cookie dough for another pie, use some parchment or wax paper and form the dough into a flat circle. Place another paper on top and put the disc in a freezer reclosable plastic bag. Freeze. When ready to use, thaw until it can be shaped again, and make your piecrust.

Banana pudding is such a classic dessert in North Carolina, but my family likes pies. So I started thinking about making banana pudding as a pie. Then I started thinking that banana pudding is similar to trifle or tiramisu. And that gave me the idea to make it with scuppernong wine, another NC classic.

Let’s talk story

Muscadine grapes are native to the southeast. Scuppernong are a bronze or golden colored variety that were found in eastern North Carolina near the Scuppernong River. These grapes are a sweet summer tradition. The Mother Vine, dating back to the 1580s, is still alive today on Roanoke Island (Manteo, NC).

Dr. William B. Nesbitt was a faculty member at NC State University starting in 1966. His career was dedicated to improving muscadine grape varieties for wine and for fresh eating. His research led to seven new varieties of grapes including Carlos and Noble. The Nesbitt Award of the Southern Extension Research Activity is named in his honor. I enjoy going to the NC State Fair every year to look at the wine competition. There is always a Carlos bottle in the winners’ ribbons. This pie is a tribute to the work of Bill Nesbitt.bill-nesbitt-carlos
