Learn how to make delicious No Bake Mini Banana Cream Pies. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 and 1/2 cups of crushed graham crackers
  • 1/3 cup melted unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 and 3/4 cups cold milk
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 ripe bananas, sliced
  • Whipped cream for topping (optional)
  • Chocolate shavings for garnish (optional)

If you’re missing graham crackers, crushed vanilla wafers make a great substitute. And if you prefer a dairy-free option, coconut milk works beautifully in the pudding mix!

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers with melted butter and granulated sugar until well combined.
  2. Press the mixture into the bottom of individual serving cups or a muffin tin lined with cupcake liners to form the crust. Refrigerate for about 10 minutes to set.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and cold milk until smooth. Let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
  4. In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the pudding mixture.
  5. Layer the banana slices over the chilled crust in each cup, then spoon the pudding mixture on top, smoothing it out with a spatula.
  6. Refrigerate the pies for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
  7. Before serving, top with additional whipped cream and chocolate shavings if desired.

These mini pies are a testament to the power of patience in cooking, something my abuela always emphasized. Letting them chill ensures they hold their shape beautifully when served.
