  • If you're using nilla wafers in banana pudding, you're making it wrong! These are the 2 secret ingredients that you should be using in your banana pudding recipe!
    Once you try this easy pudding recipe that is no bake, then you will have had the best banana pudding ever! Even though this recipe is made from scratch, it is super simple and it's going to change your banana pudding dessert game! I personally guarantee it!
    Now I do borrow the trick from magnolia bakery in which we use sweetened condensed milk, but otherwise this recipe is as far as I know, is made up by yours truly!
    The best banana pudding recipe ever follows:
    Give it a go banana pudding recipe
    Ingredients:
    1 can sweetened condensed milk
    water
    1.5 packages graham crackers
    1 16oz tub cool whip
    1 pkg vanilla instant pudding
    4 bananas
    cinnamon
    Directions:
    1. pour sweetened condensed milk into a measuring cup and add water until it equals 2 cups. Mix together well.
    2. pour in the instant vanilla pudding and mix for 2 minutes. Put in the refrigerator for about an hour. (It will thicken but it does need this much time, you can do more if you want)
    3. After pudding is thickened, in a new bigger bowl add in the cool whip and pudding mixture and gently mix until it is all combined.
    4. in an 8x8 inch dish, alternate layers of graham crackers, then slice and lay out banana in a single layer, then 1/3 pudding mixture. Repeat these layers. You should be able to make 2.
    5. Top the pudding with cinnamon, if you want you can crunch up some graham cracker and sprinkle it around the side to make it fancy. Enjoy!
    (eat this with in a day, or the bananas will get brown and mushy.
    I hardly ever eat pudding but this recipe is so good, I would eat this over cake! And cake is my all time favorite!
    Check out the pantry challenge which only took 10 minutes to make and I used another instant pudding mix here:

    The reason why people are always trying to make banana pudding better, is because they aren’t making it from scratch. They are using Cool Whip, instant pudding, etc. …… which is not how you really make banana pudding. Making it from scratch is very easy. If you have ever had real banana pudding, you’ll understand why people try to add things to make it different/better.

    • @GiveItAGoBakes
      @GiveItAGoBakes  Před 6 měsíci +4

      I have to agree, I'm sure making it from scratch is great, but some people don't want to or don't have time or they really just want something quick. Using real whipped cream is 100% better than cool whip but same answer above. Even after all the differences, making the swap with my 2 other ingredients will still make a homemade from scratch banana pudding even better.

      You are so right, VeiledDancer. People would pay my Mom to make them a banana pudding. It was the very best and cannot be improved upon, although graham crackers may be very tasty as a replacement for vanilla wafers since I love them too.

    I've made so many variations of banana pudding. My personal favorite is to use Pepperidge Farms Bordeaux cookies. Basically caramel cookies. Comparatively, they're a bit more pricey unless you find them on sale but very tasty. Drizzle a bit of caramel sauce on top for an added touch. So good.

    You all make things more difficult than it needs to be. I made a banana pudding poke cake for a huge bday party we had with a band and everyone loved it. All you do is bake a yellow cake mix. Cook how box says. When done and it cools a bit use the handle of a wooden spoon or similar and poke holes all over the top of the cake, when cooled make jello banana pudding. So as box says and pour over cake and spread to make sure goes in the holes. You can layer with sliced banana or leave them out, then layer crushed vanilla wafers or layer the whole cookie, I rather crush them and then spread cool whip on top. I sprinkle some crushed vanilla cookies on top as decoration-Refrigerate over night. If you want when you cut and serve you can put couple sliced bananas on top. I’m allergic to bananas so I don’t put them. You can also make the cake using chocolate pudding and no bananas.

      In my experience almond milk doesn't set up quite the same if you only use it. It's been a little while since I've done it so it could be different now. If you try, I would suggest starting with half the amount in almond milk and see if it starts to set up. If it does then add a bit more. If it starts to be too loose then I would finish off with regular milk. Hope that helps!

What she’s making look more like a parfait with graham crackers. The only thing she has right is how to layer it. So you can’t say it’s being made wrong. She can say she found a new way of making it to her taste. This is just as bad as those who say they’re making banana pudding but they don’t put bananas in it. Only the pudding and the cookies.

      Vanilla wafers were invented in 1898 by a German- American man. They started being regularly used for banana pudding in the 1940s, which means there were at least 40 years when they weren't. Nabisco started printing the recipe on the box after it became popular. I'm not sure why the color of skin matters for providing an alternative suggestion for a recipe. Alas, I hope you have a fabulous day today and wish you all the best in life.

      I swear the Borduex seem really familiar. I'll have to look when I go back to the grocery store next. (Writing on my calendar now or I'll forget lol). I'll have to switch out the nilla wafers though 🤣
