Banana pudding is more than just a simple bowl of pudding. Banana pudding is a dessert that combines several flavors in one bite and is similar to cake, pudding and pie all in one. Homemade banana pudding can be made using homemade pudding or instant pudding. The key to banana pudding is the layering of different ingredients and the flavors they lend to this dessert.
Line the bottom of your square baking pan with vanilla wafers, covering the bottom of the pan from side to side.
Slice the bananas about 1/3-inch wide per slice. Lay banana slices in a single layer over the vanilla wafers in the bottom of the baking pan.
Spoon vanilla pudding over the vanilla wafers and banana slices. Use half the pudding for your layer.
