Make Strawberry Crunch Banana Pudding Recipe with clear steps, pantry staples, and flexible swaps.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 box 3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 1 can 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 container 8 oz whipped topping, thawed
  • 4 medium ripe bananas sliced
  • 1 package 3 oz strawberry gelatin
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 1/2 cups freeze-dried strawberries crushed
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs

Method
 

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until fully combined and smooth. Allow it to sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
  2. Next, add the sweetened condensed milk to the pudding mixture and gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until well blended. This will create a creamy base for your pudding.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, crushed freeze-dried strawberries, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and have a crumbly texture.
  4. To assemble the pudding, start by layering a portion of the vanilla pudding mixture at the bottom of a large serving dish or individual cups.
  5. Add a layer of sliced bananas on top of the pudding, followed by a layer of the strawberry crunch mixture.
  6. Repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of the strawberry crunch on top for an appealing presentation.
  7. Cover the assembled pudding with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. This chilling time allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
  8. Once ready to serve, you can garnish with additional banana slices or fresh strawberries if desired. Enjoy your delectable Strawberry Crunch Banana Pudding!
