If you haven’t yet experienced the charm of Savannah, Georgia, it deserves a top spot on your travel bucket list. After spending two delightful years there post-college, I can attest that the city’s rich history, stunning architecture, friendly locals, and, of course, mouthwatering cuisine make it unforgettable. One culinary gem I discovered during my time there was none other than banana pudding.
You may have heard of this classic treat, and for good reason—it’s a dessert that leaves a lasting impression. Just think about it: creamy pudding, sweet bananas, crunchy vanilla wafers, and fluffy whipped cream combine to create pure bliss. Banana pudding truly embodies comfort food in dessert form.
While I’ve crafted banana pudding from scratch in the past—right down to whipping the cream by hand—I found that a simpler approach worked wonders. A few years ago, I decided to whip up a no-fuss version, and to my surprise, it was an instant hit. Seriously!
Lazy Cook’s Banana Pudding Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 packages (1 oz each) instant vanilla pudding
- 2 overly ripe bananas
- 1 container of thawed whipped topping
- 1 package of vanilla wafers
Instructions
- In a large bowl, prepare the instant pudding according to the package directions for pie filling. Once set, gently fold in the whipped topping and place the mixture in the refrigerator. Slice the bananas into ½-inch rounds.
- Begin layering in a 2-quart casserole dish: Start with a layer of vanilla wafers, followed by a layer of banana slices, and then a ½-inch layer of the pudding mixture. Continue this process until you’ve used up your ingredients or reached the top of the dish, ensuring the final layer is pudding.
- For a fun twist, serve individual portions in ramekins for a personal touch.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, although leaving it overnight allows the flavors to meld beautifully, resulting in soft, cake-like wafers.
Note: You can easily adapt this recipe to be diabetic-friendly by swapping in sugar-free pudding, sugar-free whipped topping, and sugar-free vanilla wafers. If you struggle to find sugar-free wafers, Murray’s sugar-free shortbread cookies make a great alternative.
