Easy Banana Pudding in Glasses
Easy banana pudding recipe layered in individual glasses with fresh bananas, vanilla wafers, and whipped cream. No bake, creamy, and crowd‑pleasing.
Ingredients
- 2 cups cold whole milk (480 ml)
- 1 packet instant vanilla pudding (100 g)
- 1 cup cold heavy cream (240 ml)
- 2 tbsp powder sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3-4 ripe bananas sliced
- 7 oz vanilla wafers 200 g (or Biscoff, optional but a delicious Belgian twist)
- a squeeze of lemon juice
Instructions
Make the pudding
-
1) In a bowl, whisk the cold milk with the instant pudding mix until thickened. Let it sit for 5 minutes to fully set.
Whip the cream
-
2) In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form.
-
3) Fold half of the whipped cream into the pudding to make it extra silky. Reserve the other half for topping.
Prep the bananas
-
4) Slice the bananas and toss them with a tiny squeeze of lemon juice, just enough to keep them pretty.
Assemble the glasses
-
5) In each glass, layer: crushed vanilla wafers (or speculoos), a spoonful of pudding, a layer of banana slices. Repeat until you reach the top.
-
6) Finish with a dollop of whipped cream and a few crumbs for drama
Chill
-
7) Refrigerate for at least 1 hour so the cookies soften slightly and the flavors settle into each other.
