Ingredients

Pudding Base

Banana Layer

Whipped Topping

Graham Cracker Layer

Preparation

Prepare Pudding Base

1. Combine Dry Ingredients

In a medium saucepan, mix together the granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.

2. Add Milk

Gradually whisk in the milk to the dry ingredients, ensuring there are no lumps.

3. Cook Mixture

Over medium heat, cook the mixture while whisking constantly until it thickens and starts to bubble. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

4. Add Vanilla and Butter

Once thickened, remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and butter until fully melted and combined.

Assemble Banana Pudding

5. Slice Bananas

Peel and slice the ripe bananas into thin rounds.

6. Layer Ingredients

In a serving dish, start with a layer of graham crackers, followed by a layer of banana slices, then pour half of the pudding base over the bananas.

7. Repeat Layers

Repeat the layers with the remaining graham crackers, bananas, and pudding base.

Make Whipped Topping

8. Whip Cream

In a mixing bowl, pour in the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar. Using an electric mixer, whip until stiff peaks form.

9. Top Pudding

Spread the whipped cream over the top layer of pudding and smooth it out with a spatula.

Chill and Serve

10. Refrigerate

Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible, to allow flavors to meld and pudding to set.

11. Serve

Once chilled, serve the banana pudding in individual cups or bowls, and enjoy!
