Ingredients
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup melted butter
1/4 cup sugar
1 package (3.4 oz) instant banana cream pudding mix
2 cups cold milk
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ripe bananas, sliced
Whipped cream (for topping)
Honey (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Stir until well mixed and the crumbs are evenly coated.
- Form the Crust: Spoon the mixture into mini pie dishes or tart pans. Press down gently to form an even crust.
- Make the Pudding: In a separate bowl, whisk the instant banana cream pudding mix and cold milk. Stir for 2 minutes until the pudding thickens. Set aside.
- Whip the Cream: In a medium bowl, beat heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Assemble the Pies: Layer sliced bananas over the graham cracker crust. Spoon banana pudding over the bananas, spreading it evenly.
- Top with Whipped Cream: Spoon whipped cream over the pudding layer.
- Chill: Refrigerate the pies for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set.
- Serve: Drizzle honey over the pies before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.
Notes
For a chocolate twist, you can add a layer of chocolate ganache on top of the graham cracker crust.
For a tropical flair, sprinkle toasted coconut over the whipped cream or mix it into the pudding.
To reduce calories, substitute low-fat pudding mix and non-fat milk.
To prevent the bananas from browning, drizzle lemon juice over the slices before layering them.
