Tips & Variations
-
Banana freshness: Brush banana slices with a little lemon juice before topping to prevent browning.
-
Texture tweak: For a mousse‑like lighter bite, fold in extra whipped cream instead of heavy cream.
-
Flavor boost: Add a sprinkle of ground cinnamon or a dash of banana extract for a deeper banana‑pudding vibe.
-
Cookie crust swap: Instead of graham cracker crumbs, use crushed vanilla wafers (traditional for banana pudding) for extra authenticity. Immaculate Bites+1
-
Make‑ahead friendly: These hold up well in the fridge for up to 2–3 days — just wait to add banana slices or whipped cream until serving to keep them fresh.
-
Serve style: Use mini cupcake liners or small mason jars for easy serving and cute presentation.
