The Most Delicious Banana Pudding Recipe! Perfect for Your Holidays

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Add 2/3 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of sugar, and 2 cups of whole milk to a mixing bowl and stir to remove lumps.

Separate 6 eggs, adding the yolks to the mixture and stirring well.

Add a pinch of kosher salt and 2 more cups of whole milk to the mixture, stirring thoroughly.

Place the mixture in a double boiler and continuously stir for about 10-15 minutes until it thickens to a pudding texture.

Once thickened, turn off the heat and add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, mixing until the butter melts.

Allow the pudding to cool for about 10-15 minutes, or refrigerate to speed up the cooling process.

Slice ripe bananas into even rounds.

Layer a small amount of pudding at the base of a serving dish, then line with Nilla wafers, followed by a layer of banana slices.

Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of cookies on top.

For the topping, whip 2 cups of heavy cream until soft peaks form, then add 1/4 cup of sugar and continue whipping until desired consistency is reached.
