Top with layer of sliced bananas.

Pour about 1/3 of custard over bananas. Continue to layer wafers, bananas, and custard to make 3 layers of each, ending with custard. Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry; gradually add remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Spoon on top of pudding, spreading to cover entire surface and sealing well to edges. Bake at 4250 F for 5 minutes or until delicately browned. Cool slightly or chill. Just before serving, garnish with banana slices, then vanilla Wafers upright and around edge of dish.
