Equipment

  • medium bowl
  • electric mixer
  • Spatula
  • serving glasses

Ingredients
  

Pudding Base

  • cup protein powder Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard vanilla
  • 1.1 boxes instant pudding mix Jell-O sugar-free vanilla
  • 1.5 cups milk
  • Pinch salt

Whipped Cream Mixture

  • 1.5 cups cream chilled to roughly 38°F
  • cup yogurt Fage 0% Greek yogurt

Assembly

  • 3 bananas sliced into ¼-inch rounds
  • 27 nilla wafers
  • 4 nilla wafers crushed for a decorative garnish

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Combine the protein powder and instant pudding mix in a medium bowl, stirring together thoroughly to break up any lumps. Add the milk and a pinch of salt, then stir vigorously for about 1 minute until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Cover and refrigerate for 40 minutes.
  • While the pudding chills, pour the chilled cream into a separate bowl and whip it until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the Greek yogurt until just combined, then reserve ½ cup of this mixture for topping. Fold the remaining cream into the thickened pudding.
  • Slice the bananas into ¼-inch rounds and prepare the nilla wafers. Gather your serving glasses.
  • Divide the creamy pudding mixture among the serving glasses, creating alternating layers of banana slices, crushed nilla wafers, and pudding. Top each serving with the reserved whipped cream mixture, a whole nilla wafer, and fresh banana slices.

Notes

Slicing the bananas just before assembly prevents browning.
