Banana Pudding is an extremely luscious dessert. It is an excellent choice for a busy and warm day. One bite and you taste buds will start singing a different Tune.
Can you believe May is here already? It’s time for summer entertaining, and I am so excited!!
When it is boiling out there, we often try not to turn on the oven and think of easy and quick desserts to make. My Banana Pudding sounds like the perfect no-bake dessert that comes in few minutes and always disappears fast!
It is eggless, delicious and rich!!
Once your ingredients are ready, it is just a matter of assembling the dessert and sticking it in the refrigerator.
This is my family favorite snack! I hope your family likes it too!!
An Amazing Banana Pudding!
Banana Fruit
Bananas are an excellent choice for anyone interested in healthy eating. They are incredibly delicious, easily stored, available in your local grocery store all year long, and one of the most inexpensive fresh fruits you can buy.
While they’re native to Southeast Asia, they grow ubiquitously in many warm climates, making them available worldwide.
A banana starts out firm and green but turns yellow, soft, and sweet as it ripens.

Tips for the Best Banana Pudding
- Use bananas that are ripe and sweet. Steer away from ones that are mushy.
- To keep bananas from turning brown in this banana pudding recipe, brush or spritz a small amount of lemon juice, or other citrus acid, onto the cut banana slices. Be careful not to add too much or it will taste like Lemon Pudding.
- Use a good brand of Vanilla. It is the flavoring essence of the recipe.
- Slice and serve chilled in a trifle bowl, or in individual dessert cups, for a neat and fancy presentation!
