Strawberry Banana Pudding: A Light and Creamy No-Bake Treat

Learn how to make a refreshing and easy Strawberry Banana Pudding! This no-bake dessert features layers of graham crackers, a creamy pudding mixture, and fresh fruit.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 9 whole reduced-fat cinnamon graham crackers
  • 1–3/4 cups cold fat-free milk
  • 1 package (1 ounce) sugar-free instant cheesecake or vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 large firm banana, sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries, divided
  • 2–1/2 cups reduced-fat whipped topping, divided

 

  • Mint sprigs, optional

Instructions

1. Prepare the Pan:

  • Line the bottom of a 9-inch square pan with 4 1/2 graham crackers.

2. Make the Pudding:

  • In a small bowl, whisk the cold fat-free milk and the instant pudding mix for 2 minutes.
  • Let stand until soft-set, about 2 minutes.

3. Prepare the Bananas:

  • Place the sliced banana in another small bowl.
  • Toss with the lemon juice to prevent browning.

4. Combine Pudding and Fruit:

  • Stir the banana slices and 1 cup of the sliced strawberries into the pudding.
  • Fold in 1 3/4 cups of the reduced-fat whipped topping.

5. Assemble the Pudding:

  • Spread half of the pudding mixture over the graham crackers in the pan.
  • Repeat the layers (graham crackers and remaining pudding mixture).

6. Chill:

  • Cover the pan and refrigerate overnight. This allows the pudding to set completely and the flavors to meld.

7. Top and Serve:

  • Just before serving, top with the remaining sliced strawberries and the remaining whipped topping.
  • If desired, garnish with mint sprigs.
