Save Recipe

As I tossed bananas into the blender (affiliate link), I thought, “This needs a twist.” I grabbed Greek yogurt for protein and spotted leftover vanilla wafer cookies. That’s when the idea hit me! Why not a smoothie that tastes like banana pudding?

In just five minutes, I whipped up a creamy, guilt-free treat that tasted like dessert. The next morning, I made it again and again. It quickly became my go-to for something sweet, filling, and healthy, just like my chocolate banana coffee smoothie.

Why I love this recipe

This recipe is one of my favorites because it’s so simple and quick, yet it still feels like a dessert! With just a handful of ingredients and only 5 minutes to make, it’s perfect for busy mornings or when I want something refreshing and filling.

Ingredients

  • frozen banana slices – freeze the bananas when they are brown spotted and overripe for the sweetest flavor
  • vanilla Greek yogurt – this gives you the pudding flavor with a bonus of added protein
  • unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • vanilla wafer cookies (save a few for garnish)

If you prefer to use regular milk, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the smoothie to get that vanilla pudding flavor.

Step by step

  1. Place the frozen banana slices, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and vanilla wafer cookies into the blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Adjust the thickness with the almond milk to your preference.
  2. Pour the smoothie into a glass and, if desired, garnish with extra crushed vanilla wafer cookies on top.

Tips for best results

  • Add extra ice if you want a thicker smoothie then adjust the almond milk to your desired thickness.
  • Garnish with crushed vanilla wafer cookies for that authentic banana pudding feel.

Variations

You can experiment with add-ins to make this smoothie your own. Protein powder, peanut butter, and collagen powder are a few of my personal favorite ways to change it up.

Serving suggestions

This banana pudding is a great standalone snack or breakfast. I love enjoying it first thing in the morning or as a midday pick-me-up.

Storage

It’s best to enjoy smoothies fresh, so it’s recommended to make them just before consumption.
