Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 3 tablespoons Earth Balance Vegan Butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 cooked pie crust of choice (gluten-free if needed)
  • 2-3 bananas (sliced)
  • 1 container coconut cool whip (I use So Delicious CocoWhip)

Method
 

  1. Prebake your favorite pie crust and let it cool completely.
  2. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, egg yolks, and salt. Slowly whisk in about 1/2 cup of the almond milk until smooth.
  3. Place the saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the remaining almond milk. Cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture bubbles and thickens, about 1-2 minutes after bubbling.
  4. Remove from heat. Stir in the vegan butter and vanilla extract until smooth. Let the pudding cool for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Arrange a layer of sliced bananas on the bottom of the cooled pie crust. Pour the pudding mixture over the bananas. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours until set.
  6. Top with coconut cool whip and extra banana slices. Serve chilled and enjoy this amazing dairy-free treat!

Notes

- Ensure your pie crust is fully cooled before adding the filling to prevent sogginess.
- For the creamiest pudding, whisk constantly while cooking to avoid lumps.
- For best results, use ripe but firm bananas. Overripe bananas can make the filling too soft.
