Trader Joe’s EASY Banana Pudding Recipe

Method

• 1)

  Separate the sandwiched Vanilla Joe-Joe’s and use a butter knife to scrape off the creme filling and place into a bowl and set aside. Hand crush the cookies so they are broken up, but still chunky (not crumbs).

• 2)

  Add ½ Cup Trader Joe’s Banana Fruit Spread into the bowl with creme filling. Use a whisk and stir very well to combine. Put the mixture into a fine mesh strainer/sieve and use a silicone spatula to push it through into a large mixing bowl, this will get rid of any lumps. Add 16 oz Trader Joe’s Whole Milk Greek Yogurt, 3 Tablespoons Powdered Sugar and stir well to combine. Taste & add more sugar if you prefer it sweeter.

• 3)

  Add a layer of cookies to the bottom of six jars / cups. I used 7oz jars, so I filled about ⅓ of the jar with the pudding, then add another layer of cookies. Divide up the rest of the pudding evenly between the 6 jars and top with the rest of the cookies (save the fine cookie crumbs for garnishing). Refrigerate for about 2-3 hours hours so the cookies soften.

• 4)

  Right before serving, add whipped cream to each jar and garnish with freshly cut banana slices and cookie crumbs. These are best eaten on the same day. Enjoy!
