Instructions:
-
Make pudding according to directions. In a mixing bowl, prepare the instant vanilla pudding according to the package instructions. Allow it to set for a few minutes until thickened and creamy.
-
Add pudding to crust. Once the pudding has reached the desired consistency, pour it into the graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula to create a smooth layer.
-
Prepare the fruit toppings. Peel and slice the banana into rounds. Arrange the banana slices on top of the pudding layer. Next, drain the crushed pineapple and spoon it over the bananas. Wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them and scatter them over the pineapple layer.
-
Top with Cool Whip. Finish off your masterpiece by generously dolloping Cool Whip over the fruit layer. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly, covering the entire surface of the pie with pillowy clouds of whipped cream.
-
Optional: Customize for dietary preferences. For a lighter version of this delectable dessert, opt for skim milk when preparing the pudding and choose sugar-free pudding mix. The result is equally delicious, with fewer calories and less fat, perfect for those watching their intake.
-
Serve and enjoy! Once assembled, your Best Pudding and Pineapple Pie Ever is ready to be devoured. Slice it into wedges and serve chilled for a refreshing treat that’s guaranteed to delight your taste buds. Whether it’s a family gathering, potluck, or simply a weeknight indulgence, this pie is sure to steal the spotlight and leave everyone craving more.
Tips:
- Feel free to get creative with the fruit toppings! Try adding additional tropical fruits like mango or kiwi for an extra burst of flavor.
- If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought whipped cream instead of Cool Whip, although the latter adds a delightful lightness and creaminess to the pie.
- For a fun twist, drizzle a bit of chocolate syrup or caramel sauce over the finished pie just before serving, adding a touch of decadence to each slice.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, although it’s unlikely there will be any leftovers once your family gets a taste of this irresistible dessert!
