Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 3 ripe bananas
• 1 package instant vanilla pudding mix (3.4-ounce package)
• 2 cups cold whole milk
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 10 vanilla wafer cookies (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the texture is like damp sand.

Step 3

Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.

Step 5

While the crust cools, slice the bananas into 1/4-inch thick rounds and set aside.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix with cold milk for 2 minutes, or until thickened. Place the pudding in the refrigerator to set for 5 minutes.

Step 7

In another bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together on high speed until stiff peaks form (approximately 3-4 minutes). Set aside.

Step 8

Once the crust is fully cooled, layer the banana slices evenly over the bottom of the crust.

Step 9

Spread the vanilla pudding over the layer of bananas, ensuring it covers the entire surface.

Step 10

Top the pudding layer with the whipped cream, spreading evenly with a spatula.

Step 11

Optionally, garnish the top with vanilla wafer cookies or additional banana slices.

Step 12

Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours to allow it to set before serving.

Step 13

Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your Banana Pudding Pie!
