I know I do this every year. I make something sweet like cake or cheesecake and I sing myself happy birthday. But hey, can you blame me? Your own birthday is kinda the best, especially when it lands smack dab in the middle of summer. To celebrate, let’s make pudding – Peanut Butter Banana Pudding to be exact! This 5-ingredient banana pudding is a direct result of my smashing success in making Vegan Peanut Butter Pudding! I couldn’t help but take it and do something Banana Cream Pie-esque with it, and thus, banana pudding was born. It all starts with peanut butter pudding whipped with coconut whipped cream to create a fluffy, perfectly sweet peanut butter base. Next, you simply layer it with your Homemade Vegan Vanilla Wafers (or try our 3-Ingredient PB Cookies for a no-bake option!) and fresh sliced bananas. Top with a little more coconut whip, bananas, and crumbled wafers and you’re golden! We hope you LOVE this pudding! It’s: Creamy from the puddingFluffy from the coconut whipCrunchy from the vanilla wafersSalty-sweetPerfect for celebrations& Seriously delicious This would make the perfect warm-weather dessert because it’s cold, creamy, and outta-this-world tasty. It’s amazing as is, but I could also see a drizzle of 5-Ingredient Vegan Caramel Sauce being the perfect topper.
