How to Make Easter Banana Pudding (Quick Overview)
The section below outlines a few details. The full process is located in the recipe card at the end of the post.
In a mixing bowl, prepare the pudding by mixing the pudding mix and milk together until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
To lower the sugar content of this dish slightly, you can use zero sugar pudding mix.
In another mixing bowl, whip cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk. Then, fold in the whipped cream.
Finally, fold in the pudding mixture until thoroughly combined.
Grab a 9” x 13” casserole dish and line the bottom with vanilla wafers, then add a layer of banana slices on top.
A 9″ x 13″ dish is easy for a party, but you can also use multiple smaller dishes, a trifle dish, or individual serving dishes.
Spoon about half of the pudding mixture over the bananas and spread it out evenly.
Add another layer of vanilla wafers and bananas, then finish it off by spreading the rest of the pudding mixture on top.
To the top, sprinkle some crushed vanilla wafers or add more banana slices if you’d like.
Cover the dish and pop it in the fridge to chill for about an hour.
Feeling festive? Before serving, add some Easter Peeps Bunnies on top! If you’re sticking them directly into the pudding, use toothpicks to keep them upright.
Serve and enjoy your delicious banana pudding! 🍌
