Ingredients
  

Crust
  • 1 9-inch pre-made graham cracker crust
Filling
  • 3 whole ripe bananas sliced
  • 1 package instant vanilla pudding mix 3.4 oz
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup fresh whipped cream

Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • Pie pan
  • whisk

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prepare Your Crust: If using a store-bought graham cracker crust, set aside. For homemade, crush 10-12 graham crackers with melted butter and press into a pie pan.
  2. Make the Pudding: In a bowl, whisk together instant pudding mix and milk until smooth; let sit for 5 minutes until thickened.
  3. Slice the Bananas: Cut bananas into rounds, ensuring they are slightly thick for texture.
  4. Assemble the Pie: Layer half of the banana slices in the crust, pour half of the pudding on top, then repeat with remaining bananas and pudding.
  5. Top with Whipped Cream: Generously spread fresh whipped cream over the pie.
  6. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

For a rich twist, consider using chocolate pudding instead of vanilla. Store leftover pie in an airtight container for up to three days.
