To make it even more delicious, we will be adding vanilla wafers to the mix. Here is a simple recipe that is sure to impress your friends and family.
Ingredients:
- 1 9-inch pie crust, baked
- 1 box (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 3/4 cups milk

- 2 ripe bananas, sliced
- 1 cup vanilla wafers, crushed
- Whipped cream, for topping
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and milk until well combined.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
4. Fold the whipped cream into the pudding mixture until fully incorporated.
5. Layer the sliced bananas on the bottom of the baked pie crust.
6. Pour the pudding mixture over the bananas, spreading it out evenly.
7. Sprinkle the crushed vanilla wafers over the top of the pudding mixture.
8. Bake the pie for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the pudding mixture is set.
9. Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature.
10. Once cooled, top the pie with whipped cream and additional crushed vanilla wafers, if desired.
Tips:
1. For a more indulgent pie, use half-and-half or whole milk instead of skim milk.
2. Make sure to let the pie cool completely before serving, as the pudding filling needs time to set.
3. To prevent the bananas from browning, you can toss them in lemon juice before layering them on the crust.
