The banana cream pie is easy to make.

Ingredients

banana pudding mix

1 ¾ cup milk

graham cracker pie crust

1 or 2 bananas

whipped topping

  1. Mix the pudding and the milk together and chill until needed.

  2. Slice a banana into rounds and place them around the bottom of the pie crust. If there are extra slices, set them going up the inner edge of the crust.

  3. Pour the filling into the pie crust, and then add the whipped topping.

  4. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Tips

  • Use chocolate pudding in place of the banana pudding. After adding the whipped topping, sprinkle with mini chocolate chips.

  • Rather than using a banana pudding mix, use vanilla. Once the topping is spread over the top of the pie, add a few banana slices to the center of the pie and drizzle with melted milk chocolate.

  • Top the original recipe with fresh berries, or drizzle with melted dark chocolate.
