There are a variety of different ways to make banana pudding but making it homemade is by far the best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all, you will need to get the components of your pudding recipe ready. To do this, prepare your whipped cream and vanilla pudding, and slice your bananas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After that, you can start putting together your banana pudding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make things easier for you, we&rsquo;ve listed the steps you need to follow below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 1&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Line the bottom of your dessert dish with Nilla wafer cookies and a layer of sliced bananas. Make sure you layer the cookies first and then put the bananas on top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 2<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you&rsquo;ve made your first layer, pour half of the warm pudding over your sliced bananas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 3<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Repeat the Nilla cookie, banana, and pudding layers again. One more time should be enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 4<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After that, place a layer of plastic wrap over your pudding. Make sure the plastic wrap touches the top of the pudding slightly. This will help prevent skin from forming on your pudding as it cools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 5<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can now leave your banana pudding in a fridge for at least four hours. This will give the pudding time to chill. After four hours, remove the plastic wrap and top your pudding with whipped cream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use as much or as little whipped cream as you like. To finish, garnish the pudding with banana slices and cookies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 6<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Done! You can now serve your homemade banana pudding to your guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Much Banana Pudding Does This Recipe Make?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This homemade banana pudding recipe will help you make a batch of banana pudding big enough to serve six to eight people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should be able to fill a two to two-and-a-half-quart baking dish with this recipe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Storing Your Banana Pudding<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If by some miracle you have some of your homemade banana pudding leftover, you&rsquo;re going to want to keep it fresh and delicious. The best way to store banana pudding is in an airtight container.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, you can wrap the dish tightly in plastic wrap. Either way, you should then place your banana pudding in the refrigerator. Your banana pudding will be good for three to four days in the fridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It might also be worth noting that you can keep banana pudding in the freezer. Banana pudding kept in a freezer usually lasts up to three months before losing flavor and texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There you have it, the perfect homemade banana pudding recipe.
