Bananas are the best fruit in the world. They’re sweet and filling, and perfectly handheld for any and all eating purposes. They also contain ten percent of your daily needed potassium, a third of your vitamin B6, and eleven percent of your vitamin C!

They also contain a large amount of fiber, which is great for your digestive system. If you have cramps of any kind, bananas can help with this as well! But sometimes we want to elevate this humble yet delicious fruit to another level of banana-y goodness. What better way to do this than in a pudding!

The secret to the banana pudding shown in the video is the baked bananas coated in sugar and cinnamon. Baking the bananas helps to soften them and give them a baked and sweeter flavor, while the sugar coating on the outside caramelizes and makes them taste almost as though there is a layer of brown sugar and caramel on the outside as a layer of crunchiness alongside the graham cracker.

If you’re looking to add another layer of crunch to the pudding, add a layer of vanilla wafers! This is common practice in the South for their banana pudding, and for good reason. The wafers absorb all of the flavor while retaining their crunch and vanilla flavor, making them the perfect sweet treat!
