If you like banana pudding, them you’re going love this super easy no bake banana cream pie! It’s like banana pudding in pie form. A delicious banana pudding pie filling in a homemade graham cracker crust…such a tasty combo!

I love making this as any easy party dessert during Spring and Summer. It’s no fuss and doesn’t take long to make at all. When I have an “uh-oh” moment where I realize I forgot to make a dessert, I just throw this together really quickly! Plus, the ingredients are super simple and I often have most, if not all, of them in my kitchen already.

But don’t let this easy recipe fool you. Just because it’s simple, it lacks nothing in flavor! This no bake banana cream pie with graham cracker crust is such a tasty and fun dessert!

Why You’ll Love No Bake Banana Cream Pie

• It only takes about 10 minutes to prep this pie, the rest of the work is just “set and forget” in the refrigerator.
• This recipe only requires 7 simple ingredients! There won’t be any need to track down some crazy ingredients at the grocery store.
• You can easily make this no bake pie ahead of time and then let it set in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve. It’s a great dessert to prep if you know your dinner cooking time will be really busy.

Ingredients for No Bake Banana Cream Pie

• Bananas – The best bananas to use will be the ones that are right between super ripe and green. Don’t use bananas that are too mushy!
• Instant banana pudding – This is the main ingredient of the yummy pie filling!
• Frozen whipped topping – Frozen whipped topping is the secret to an easy and fluffy no bake pie!
• Cold milk – I recommend using whole milk, but you could use 2% or 1% if you prefer.
• Crushed graham cracker crumbs – Sometimes you can find pre-crushed graham cracker crumbs at the grocery store, but if not you can make them yourself! Place graham crackers in the food processor or in a zip top bag and beat with a rolling pin.
• Brown sugar – Brown sugar helps sweeten the crust and keep it together.
• Butter – Unsalted or salted butter will work great in this recipe.

How to Make An Easy No Bake Banana Cream Pie

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and brown sugar in a bowl until combined.

Press the graham cracker crust mixture into a 9 inch pie dish, making sure it’s about 1 ½ inches up the sides.

Bake the crust in a preheated oven for about 10 minutes and then remove it from the oven and let it cool.

Once the crust is completely cool, slice two bananas and arrange them in a single layer to cover the bottom of the crust.

Then, in a medium bowl whisk together the cold milk and pudding mix until thoroughly combined. Fold in a ½ cup of whipped topping and then pour the mixture over the bananas in the crust.

Place the pie in the refrigerator to set, it’ll take about 3 hours.

Once you’re ready to serve, top with shipped cream and extra sliced bananas!

How to Store Leftover No Bake Banana Cream Pie

FRIDGE: Cover the pie dish with plastic wrap and store in leftovers in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Over time, the bananas will start to brown and become mushy, so the sooner you eat the leftovers the better!

FREEZER: Wrap the pie with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, and keep in the freezer for up to 2 months. Allow the pie to thaw slightly before serving and then eat within 2 days.

Can I make a nilla wafer crust instead of graham cracker crust?

Absolutely! It would taste delicious. Follow the same method as you would making the graham cracker crust. You can reference this no bake key lime cheesecake for a little more insight on a vanilla wafer crust.

Can I use different pudding mixes?

Sure! Obviously, the banana pudding mix is what gives the most banana flavor for the pie, but feel free to maybe change things up a bit. You could swap one of the boxes of pudding for chocolate or vanilla pudding, I bet that would taste great!

If you’re looking for an easy-peasy dessert recipe, then this will become your go to! I hope you love it just as much as we do!
