Layer sliced ripe bananas in a pie plate, top with sweetened condensed milk and three more tasty ingredients for a dessert so creamy you’ll be thinking about it all week.
📝 Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prep the Crust & Banana Base:
- Ensure your 9-inch pie crust is fully baked and cooled completely to room temperature. 🥧
- Slice 3 to 4 ripe bananas into even coins.
- Arrange an abundant layer of sliced bananas across the bottom and sides of the pie plate. 🍌
- Mix the Creamy Filling:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 can of sweetened condensed milk, 1 package of instant vanilla pudding mix, and ½ cup of cold water or milk until completely smooth and thickened. 🥛
- Let the mixture sit for 2 minutes to set slightly.
- Fold in Whipped Cream:
- Gently fold in half of the whipped heavy cream (or Cool Whip) into the condensed milk pudding mixture using a rubber spatula until light and fluffy. ☁️
- Layer & Top:
- Pour the luscious condensed milk mixture directly over the layered bananas in the pie dish, smoothing the top evenly with a spatula.
- Top with the remaining whipped cream, spreading it edge-to-edge or piping fluffy decorative swirls! 🍦
- (Optional Garnish: Top with a few extra fresh banana slices or crushed vanilla wafer crumbs right before serving!) 🍪
- Chill & Serve:
- Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 to 4 hours (overnight is best!) to allow the pie to set so it slices perfectly.
- Slice with a warm knife and enjoy the dreamiest dessert of your week! 😋✨
