Got a hankering for bananas? If so, You'll want to get some to make this Easy No-Bake Banana Cream Pie! You'll love this lush, creamy, light banana fluff pudding with banana slices and a thick whipped cream layer all inside a scrumptious nilla wafer crust!
Slice up a thick slab of this awesome banana cream pie for after dinner! YUM! That's the best way to end the meal if you ask me.
Of course, I'm the kind of person who likes to start with dessert first, then eat the main meal, with a couple extra bites of dessert after the meal. Anyone else programmed like that? Am I weird? Don't answer that, thanks in advance. 🙂

- Pour into prepared pie crust.
- Refrigerate 2 hours to set.

- Garnish with additional 2 cups of whipped cream and bananas. (Nilla Sprinkles if desired)
- Cut and serve.

Instead of using frozen cool whip can you use real whipped cream?
I haven’t made this recipe yet but I do want to try.
I prefer real whipped cream to cool whip.
Kim Lange says
Absolutely Cathy! 1 cup of heavy whipping cream = 2 cups whipped topping after you've whipped it. Add some powdered sugar 3-4 tablespoons or more depending on preference. So 2 cups of heavy whipping cream would be 4 cups which is needed for this recipe if you want to do the whipped cream on top! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did! xo

I made this recipe for Father's Day yesterday at my husband's request and it was delicious! I would just like to say though that the recipe was a little bit confusing. Under the filling part, you mention a store bought, prepared pie crust. I wasn't really sure why that was there since you give directions for the vanilla wafer crust (which we all loved!) I am thinking that perhaps you wanted to offer that as an option but you didn't say this anywhere... plus the fact that it was listed with the filling was confusing. Also, in the instructions, you mention nothing about putting the bananas on the crust. I hope this comes across as constructive and not mean since it truly was a delicious pie and easy to make, and I absolutely will refer to this site in the future for more desserts!
