This Banana Pudding is made with an easy homemade vanilla pudding. It’s so good and only 3 points per serving for blue, green and purple!
Banana Pudding is the perfect dessert for any party. Or you can make it and keep it all to yourself. 🙂
Personally I love Banana Pudding once the cookies are no longer hard.

This Banana Pudding will stay good in the fridge for a couple of days.
Here’s what you need to make Banana Pudding:
- Bananas
- Reduced fat Nilla Wafers
- Skim milk
- Cornstarch
- Vanilla extract
- Granulated Splenda (or other sweetener of choice)
Making the homemade vanilla pudding is very easy. You start by adding the skim milk and Splenda to a pan and putting it on low heat.
Put the cornstarch in a small bowl. Once the milk has heated up add about 1/4 cup of it to the cornstarch and stir together making sure there are no clumps.
Add the cornstarch mixture to the milk and use a whisk to stir it.
Cook the pudding on low heat to make sure it doesn’t boil. After about 10 minutes it should thicken up.
Remove the pudding from heat and add in the vanilla extract. Then let the pudding cool off.
One way I made this Banana Pudding lower in points was by using reduced fat Nilla Wafers. I also used less than my original recipe called for.
I put 12 Nilla Wafers in the bottom of an 8×8 baking pan.

Next I added the bananas.

Then I added half of the vanilla pudding.

After that I did another layer of Nilla Wafers, bananas and the rest of the pudding.
You can serve it as is or you can add some whipped cream. The points for my recipe do not include whipped cream.
I also broke up two cookies to add to the top of the Banana Pudding…just to make it look pretty. I put it in the fridge for an hour so it can thicken up and the Nilla Wafers soften.
This is a great dessert for a picnic or any type of get together!
