01 Step
Recipe View
In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and cold water until well combined. (2 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View
Add the instant vanilla pudding mix to the milk mixture. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth and fully incorporated. (3 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View
Let the pudding mixture chill in the refrigerator to set slightly. (5 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View
While the pudding chills, gently fold the whipped cream into the pudding mixture until evenly distributed. This creates a light and airy texture. (2 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View
Lightly dip the sliced bananas in lemon juice to prevent browning and maintain their fresh flavor. (2 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View
In a 2 1/2-quart glass serving bowl, begin layering the pudding. Spoon approximately 1 cup of the pudding mixture into the bottom of the bowl.
07 Step
Recipe View
Arrange one-third of the vanilla wafers over the pudding layer, followed by one-third of the banana slices. Repeat layering twice, ending with a final layer of pudding mixture.
08 Step
Recipe View
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill thoroughly in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the wafers to soften slightly.
09 Step
Recipe View
Garnish as desired before serving. Consider fresh whipped cream, extra banana slices, or a sprinkle of crushed vanilla wafers.
For an even richer flavor, use whole milk instead of water.
To prevent the vanilla wafers from becoming too soggy, consider lining the bottom of the bowl with a thin layer of melted white chocolate before layering.
This pudding can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator.
