    Old Fashioned Pie? Yes Please!

    There is something about an old fashioned pie that just screams “Comfort Food”. And you know that here at Bubba Pie, we are all about the comfort food. It’s funny, as popular as pies are as a dessert, I feel like I hardly hear of anyone making one of my favorites: Banana Cream Pie.  It seems like more of something you’d find at a restaurant or a diner than at home. But, the truth is, Banana Cream Pies can be super quick and easy to make.

    By using Instant Pudding Mix and a premade Graham Cracker Crust, you can cut a whole bunch of time off of this Banana Cream Pie recipe.  Now you can easily bring that down home flavor to your next dinner party or cookout. It is light, fluffy and delicious!  Your guests won’t be able to just have one piece.

    This No Bake Banana Cream Pie Recipe is quick and easy to make.

    No Bake Banana Cream Pie Recipe

    INGREDIENTS

    Whipping Cream

    • 2 c. heavy whipping cream
    • 4 T. powdered sugar
    • 1 tsp. vanilla extract

    Pie

    • 1 cup cold 2% milk
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

    DIRECTIONS

    1. Pour heavy whipping cream, sugar and vanilla into a medium bowl and whisk on high speed until medium to stiff peaks form. Set aside.
    2. In a large bowl, whisk milk, vanilla and pudding mix for 2 minutes (mixture will be thick). Fold in 3 cups of your whipping cream.
    3. Pour 1-1/3 cups of pudding mixture into pie crust. Layer with banana slices and remaining pudding mixture. Top with remaining whipped topping and garnish with additional banana slices if desired. Refrigerate until serving.

    How Long Will A No Bake Banana Cream Pie Last?

    Your No Bake Banana Cream Pie should last about 3 days when kept in the refrigerator. Always keep it covered with a plastic lid or plastic wrap as much as possible. We all know that bananas can brown quickly. If your worried about them browning while you are making the pie or during its presentation, you can always treat them with some citric juice, lemon and lime juice work great.

    Other Variations

    If it’s important to you, you can always substitute in your favorite homemade pie crust recipe. I know that some people are pretty picky about using a homemade crust!

    You can also put some fun toppings on your banana cream pie to liven things up even more. Some coconut flakes sprinkled on top would be delicious. Or, you could introduce chocolate into the equation! Mini chocolate chips on top or some crumbles or oreo cookies would be fantastic!

    Enjoy!

      There is an error in your printed directions. For the whipped cream, it says ” 4 powdered sugar” and it needs to have tablespoons. Made the mistake of using 4 cups 😣.

      Is it 2 cups or 3 cups heavy whipping cream?

        Its 3 cups of the whipped cream, after whipping the 2 cups of liquid heavy cream there should be at least 4 cups of whipping cream.

        No, use the pudding mix as it suggests in the recipe.

      I couldn’t get the peaks out of whipping cream and confectioner sugar. What did I do wrong.?

      I mashed 2 bananas and added that to vanilla pudding. I followed the rest of the recipe to a t and it did not set. Would the bananas be the reason it was a liquid instead of a pie?

        That could be. If there is too much moisture the filling wouldn’t set.

      My pie is not setting. The pudding is pure liquid.

        You prepared the pudding filling until thick and folded it with the whipped cream and it didn’t set? That is strange.
