Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant banana cream pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ripe bananas, sliced
  • Honey, for drizzling (optional)
  • Whipped cream, for topping

Instructions

1. Prepare the Graham Cracker Crust:

  • In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Stir until the mixture is well combined and resembles wet sand.
  • Press the mixture firmly into cupcake liners placed in a muffin tin to form the crust.
  • Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to set.

2. Make the Banana Cream Filling:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant banana cream pudding mix and cold milk. Continue whisking until the mixture thickens (about 2 minutes).
  • Set the pudding aside.

3. Prepare the Whipped Cream:

  • In a separate bowl, combine heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
  • Use an electric mixer to beat the cream until soft peaks form, being careful not to overwhip.

4. Assemble the Mini Pies:

  • Remove the crusts from the refrigerator.
  • Add a spoonful of banana cream filling to each crust. Smooth it out with the back of a spoon.
  • Place one or two banana slices on top of the filling.

5. Add Whipped Cream and Garnish:

  • Pipe or spoon a dollop of whipped cream onto each pie.
  • Optional: Drizzle honey over the whipped cream for added sweetness.

6. Chill and Serve:

  • Cover the pies with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Serve cold and enjoy these creamy, delicious mini pies!

Notes

  • Use Ripe Bananas: Ripe bananas enhance the flavor and sweetness of the pies.
  • Chill for Best Results: Let the pies chill fully before serving to ensure the flavors meld and the pies hold their shape.
  • Make Ahead: You can prepare the crust and filling a day ahead, but add the banana slices and whipped cream just before serving.
  • Custom Variations: Swap banana cream pudding for vanilla or chocolate pudding for a fun twist!
