Ingredients

  • 23.4 oz instant banana cream pudding mix
  • 18 oz frozen whipped topping thawed, divided
  • 2 cups frozen whipped topping thawed, divided
  • 3 cups milk
  • 14 oz graham cracker squares
  • 3 bananas divided

Instructions

Directions: Banana Cream Pie Eclair Cake

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the 23.4-oz package of instant banana cream pudding mix with 3 cups of milk. Whisk together until the mixture thickens, about 2 minutes. Gently fold in 2 cups of the thawed whipped topping until smooth and creamy.
  • Place a single layer of graham cracker squares at the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish, breaking crackers as needed to fit snugly.
  • Spread half of the banana pudding mixture over the graham cracker layer, covering completely.
  • Slice 1 banana and layer the slices evenly over the pudding mixture.
  • Add another layer of graham crackers on top of the banana slices, then spread the remaining banana pudding mixture over them. Layer slices from another banana on top.
  • Top with a final layer of graham crackers. Spread the remaining whipped topping evenly over the graham crackers.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and graham crackers to soften.

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch Baking Dish
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Whisk or electric mixer

Notes

  • Use ripe but firm bananas to avoid a mushy texture.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute whipped topping and milk with dairy-free alternatives.
  • Do not skip chilling for best texture and flavor.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days.
