Fast and Easy Banana Pudding

by Colleen Robinson
(Baltimore, Maryland)

Whenever my family gathers for holidays or special occasions, my husband and I are always asked to bring the banana pudding. Everyone loves it and it is quick and easy to fix.

Ingredients:

6-8 bananas
2 boxes of vanilla wafers (Nabisco)
2 16 ounce tubs of cool whip
2 boxes of instant banana pudding mix
4 cups of cold milk

Equipment:

1 - 3 inch deep casserole dish with lid (the aluminum pans work best)
1 - mixing bowl
1 - whisk
1 - spatula

Combine the instant banana pudding and cold milk whisking until the pudding reaches desired consistency. Fold in the cool whip. Set aside.

Layer the bottom of a casserole dish with vanilla wafers. Slice the banana into 1 quarter inch pieces. Cover the wafers with the bananas. Cover the bananas and wafers with the pudding mixture.

Repeat the layering process 2 more times ending with the cool whip mixture on the top. Cover the cool whip mixture with crumbled vanilla wafers. Refrigerate for 2 hours.

Serve and enjoy.

I have a question my pudding mixture is very watery? Did I do something wrong? I used 4 cups milk, two boxes of pudding like it says to do. Look back for a response.

Did you use the large boxes or the small boxes of pudding? Small boxes only call for one cup each, the larger boxes each need two.

It's Great!!!
by: Danielle

I make this banana pudding time and time again and it is quick, easy, and very good. I make it with and without the banana's and I can't taste a difference. Most times I make it just cooking pudding. (banana pudding without the banana's)

You should try it! It's G-R-R-R-R-R-E-A-T!!!!!!!

When making this pudding can I omit the bananas and continue with this recipe? Will it taste the same without the bananas?

Banana Pudding - Simple You Just Have to Try This

Your banana pudding recipe looks so simple that I look forward to trying out the recipe.

I must admit I have never added whipped cream to my banana pudding dessert. But I suspect this one addition will make the pudding almost irresistible.
