Tips and Tricks:

Here are a few tips to help you make the best banana pudding ever:

  • Make sure your bananas are ripe but firm. Overripe bananas will turn mushy and won't hold their shape in the pudding.
  • If you're short on time, you can use instant banana pudding mix instead of vanilla pudding and add some fresh bananas to it.
  • If you want to add a little extra flavor to your pudding, try adding a splash of rum or bourbon to the pudding mixture.
  • If you're not a fan of Nilla wafers, you can use any type of cookie you like.
  • If you're serving the pudding at a party, consider making individual portions in mason jars for a fun and festive presentation.
