Total points for the entire recipe: 14 points Points per serving: 3 points (for 6 servings)
Instructions:
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.
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.
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.
Top with whipped topping:
If using, add a dollop of fat-free whipped topping on top of each serving.
Chill:
Refrigerate the pudding for at least 1 hour before serving to let the flavors combine and the wafers soften slightly.
Serve:
Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious banana pudding!
