Banana Foster Pudding

Bananas Foster Pudding Recipe for Beginners

Bananas Foster pudding combines the rich flavors of caramelized bananas, warm spices, and creamy pudding. Inspired by the classic Bananas Foster dessert, this easy recipe is perfect for beginners and requires no fancy equipment or techniques. In just a few simple steps, you can make a delightful, restaurant-quality dessert right at home.

Ingredients

For the Bananas Foster Layer

  • Ripe Bananas – 3, sliced
  • Butter – 3 tablespoons
  • Brown Sugar – ½ cup
  • Cinnamon – ½ teaspoon
  • Vanilla Extract – 1 teaspoon
  • Dark Rum (optional) – 2 tablespoons (or use 1 teaspoon of rum extract for a non-alcoholic version)

For the Pudding Layer

  • Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix – 1 package (3.4 ounces)
  • Milk – 2 cups (cold)
  • Whipped Topping – 1 cup, thawed (or use homemade whipped cream)

For Assembly and Topping

  • Vanilla Wafers or Graham Crackers – about 1 cup, crushed
  • Whipped Topping – for garnish
  • Cinnamon or Nutmeg – for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Bananas Foster Layer

  1. Melt the Butter – In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the brown sugar and stir until it dissolves, forming a caramel-like sauce.
  2. Add Bananas and Cinnamon – Add the sliced bananas and cinnamon to the skillet. Stir gently to coat the bananas with the caramel sauce.
  3. Add Vanilla and Rum – Stir in the vanilla extract and, if using, the rum or rum extract. Let the mixture cook for about 2-3 minutes until the bananas are soft and caramelized. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 2: Make the Vanilla Pudding

  1. Mix Pudding Ingredients – In a mixing bowl, combine the instant vanilla pudding mix with cold milk. Whisk for 2 minutes until the mixture thickens.
  2. Fold in Whipped Topping – Gently fold in 1 cup of whipped topping to make the pudding extra creamy. Set aside.

Step 3: Assemble the Pudding Cups

  1. Layer Crushed Cookies – In serving cups or small dessert bowls, add a layer of crushed vanilla wafers or graham crackers at the bottom.
  2. Add Bananas Foster Layer – Spoon a layer of the caramelized bananas over the crushed cookies.
  3. Top with Pudding – Add a generous layer of vanilla pudding on top of the bananas. Repeat the layers if your cups are tall enough, ending with a layer of pudding.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

  1. Add Whipped Topping – Top each pudding cup with a dollop of whipped topping for extra creaminess.
  2. Sprinkle with Cinnamon or Nutmeg – For a final touch, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg on top.

Serving Suggestions

Serve the Bananas Foster pudding chilled. For a richer experience, drizzle some extra caramel sauce on top or add a few more banana slices for garnish.

Tips for Success

Choosing the Right Bananas

Use ripe, but not overripe, bananas for this recipe. They should be soft and naturally sweet but not mushy.

Alcohol-Free Option

If you’d like a non-alcoholic version, simply replace the rum with a few drops of rum extract or skip it altogether.

Make-Ahead Option

You can assemble these pudding cups a few hours in advance and refrigerate them until ready to serve. However, wait to add the whipped topping and cookie layer until just before serving to keep them fresh.

Storage

Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Note that the cookies may soften over time, giving the dessert a more cake-like texture.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I Use Homemade Pudding?

What Other Toppings Can I Use?

Crushed nuts, chocolate shavings, or a drizzle of caramel sauce are all great additions to this dessert.

Enjoy this creamy, caramel-rich Bananas Foster pudding – a delightful treat that’s easy enough for beginners to make!
