The BEST Banana Pudding recipe you’ll ever try! No Bake Banana Pudding Lasagna made with layers of fresh bananas, Nilla wafers, fresh whipped cream, and vanilla or banana pudding! I love those recipes that we all grew up with, they are just too good to miss out on.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups nilla wafers crushed, divided
  • 4 tbsp butter melted
  • 2 8-oz. blocks cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 1/2 cups heavy cream cold, divided
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 3/4 cup milk
  • 5-6 large ripe bananas sliced
  • 48 Nilla wafer plus more for garnish
  • INSTRUCTIONS

    • Mix the melted butter and nilla wafer crumbs together. Firmly press into a crust in the bottom of 9 x 13 glass or porcelain dish, let it chill in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes to firm up.
    • Whip the cold heavy cream into stiff peaks on medium-high speed, about 4-5 minutes. Reserve 2 cups for topping. Set aside.
    • In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Stir in remaining whipped cream, combine slowly as you don’t want to deflate all the air in the whipped cream.
    • In a separate bowl, whisk together pudding and milk. Let stand to thicken for 5-8 minutes. Fold pudding into cheesecake mixture.
    • Pour half of the cheesecake pudding mixture evenly over the cooled crust.Layer with half of the sliced bananas and half of the vanilla wafers.
    • Add the remaining pudding mixture, a layer of the remaining sliced bananas, and a layer of the remaining vanilla wafers. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
    • Top with the reserved whipped cream, and decorate with Nilla wafers and Nilla crumbs, and banana slices before serving.
