3-Ingredient Banana Pudding
Enjoy a classic 3-ingredient banana pudding with creamy vanilla pudding, sliced bananas, and crushed vanilla wafers. Perfect for any gathering.
Ingredients
- 5 large bananas sliced
- 11 ounces vanilla wafer cookies reserve a few to use as a garnish
- 3 cups vanilla pudding
- Cool Whip thawed
Instructions
- Layer Nilla wafers in the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish or trifle bowl.
- Add sliced bananas to create a second layer.
- Repeat to create 2 to 3 layers.
- Top with vanilla pudding. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
- To garnish, crumble reserved cookies and spread over the top or arrange whole cookies and banana slices over the top.
Notes
Although the prepared banana pudding will keep for a couple days in the refrigerator, it’s best to layer it no more than an hour or two before serving.
The vanilla cookies will get soft after mixed in with the pudding and the banana can turn brown after slicing.
You can toss the banana slices in a little lemon juice. The acid will help prevent them from turning brown.
