Description
Sweet & creamy skinny banana pudding made with 6 ingredients. This skinny banana pudding is made with greek yogurt, sweetened whipped cream layered with the cookie of your choice and fresh sliced bananas, of course!
Ingredients
- 5.3 oz vanilla greek yogurt (I used Chobani)
- 2 bananas, sliced
- 1 tbsp sugar, coconut sugar, maple syrup or honey (optional)
- 1/2 C + 1/4C Whipped Cream, divided
- Graham Crackers, Nilla Wafers, butter cookies.
Whipped Cream
- 1 C cream
- 2 tbsp sugar (or coconut sugar, maple syrup, or honey)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- (If you purchased pre-made whipped cream, skip this step) Prepare the whipped cream: Make sure the cream is very cold. Add the cream, sugar, and vanilla extract to a bowl or stand mixer and whip on medium speed until stiff peaks begin to form.
- Dump the greek yogurt in a medium bowl and add additional 1 tbsp of sweetener. This is optional, but the added sweetness make it taste more like traditional banana pudding. Fold* in 1/2 C of the whipped cream.
- Layer the banana pudding: On the bottom of a jar, add the cookie of your choice. Break it up to make it fit. Add 2 tbsp of the greek yogurt “pudding”. Next, add sliced bananas. Finally, add a small dollop of the reserved whipped cream. REPEAT. I like to top the pudding with an additional dollop of whipped cream, a couple slices of banana for garnish, and a little crumbled cookie!
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour; store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- ENJOY!
Notes
Folding in the whipped cream helps the mixture to maintain is lighter airy texture. if you whip too vigorously the mix might deflate.
You could also use plain Greek yogurt and sweeten it to your liking before folding in the whipped cream.
