Instructions

Whisk together vanilla pudding and half & half in a large bowl according to package instructions (usually 1- 2 minutes). Set aside for a minute.
Cut bananas into slices and arrange them in a single layer in the bottom of the graham cracker pie crust.
Evenly cover bananas with pudding mixture.
In a medium bowl with an electric mixer or whisk, beat whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla together until soft peaks form.

Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator until set before serving.
To serve, slice the pie into individual slices and garnish each piece with additional vanilla wafer crumbs or whole cookies.

Notes

Crust: Use a pre-made graham cracker crust to save time. Feel free to make your graham cracker crust if you'd like.

Filling: Don't use skim milk or non-dairy milk for your pudding filling. It doesn't produce as rich and flavorful a dessert and tends to get watery.

Storing: Store in the fridge for up to three to four days. We recommend covering your no-bake pie recipe with plastic wrap instead of aluminum foil to help keep it fresh.

We don't recommend freezing this pie.
