Description
This creamy and nostalgic banana pudding milkshake blends Southern comfort with sweet vanilla wafers and ripe bananas. Perfect for hot summer days or retro dessert cravings!
Ingredients
2 ripe bananas
2 cups vanilla ice cream
½ cup whole milk (or almond/oat milk)
¼ cup instant vanilla pudding mix
⅓ cup crushed vanilla wafers
1 tbsp sweetened condensed milk (optional)
Whipped topping (optional, for garnish)
Banana slices & extra wafer crumbs (for garnish)
Instructions
Prep the bananas: Peel and slice bananas. For a thicker texture, use frozen banana slices.
Blend the base: In a high-speed blender, combine bananas, vanilla ice cream, milk, pudding mix, and sweetened condensed milk. Blend until smooth.
Add crunch: Toss in crushed vanilla wafers and pulse 2–3 times to keep small bits for texture.
Serve: Pour into chilled glasses. Top with whipped cream, extra wafer crumbs, and banana slices.
Enjoy immediately for best flavor and texture.
Notes
For a dairy-free version, use non-dairy ice cream and milk.
Use banana pudding mix instead of vanilla for extra banana flavor.
Adjust milk for desired thickness.
