Banana and Graham Cracker Pie

I made this dessert the other day and it was a delicious super simple version of a banana cream pie that can be made quickly, left in the fridge, and can use up ripe bananas or use less than fully ripe bananas.

I can honestly report while this pie was sitting in the fridge it was noticed and I was asked where I had bought it. I took that as a compliment that the pie didn’t obviously look homemade. If you would like to make the pie more from scratch you can make your own whipped topping and graham cracker crust.

Tip: when combining the pudding and cool whip or mixing the cool whip to be able to spread do not stir the cool whip, this will make it break down and make it become flatter and more watery, instead be sure to fold the cool whip to maintain it’s structure.
