Introduction

This Protein Banana Pudding is an easy, no sugar added dessert that’s both satisfying and nutritious. It combines creamy Greek yogurt with vanilla protein powder and banana flavor for a guilt-free treat. Perfect for a quick snack or a light dessert.

Two clear glass jars filled with a layered dessert are placed side by side on a white marbled surface. Each jar has three visible layers: the bottom layer is a smooth, creamy white mixture, followed by a middle layer of irregular light brown cake pieces, and topped with a layer of mixed cream and more cake crumbs. The jars have a diamond pattern etched into the glass, and soft natural light highlights the textures. In the background, there is a blurred dark and white wall, with a yellow banana partly visible. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

⅔ cup Non-fat Greek Yogurt (150g)
⅓ cup Whey Vanilla Protein Powder (30g)
4 teaspoons Banana Cream Flavor Instant Pudding Mix, sugar free (11g)
2 teaspoons Unsweetened Almond Milk (10ml)
3-4 crushed Vanilla Wafers, sugar free recommended (14g)
½ medium Banana, sliced (60g)

Instructions

Step 1: In a bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, vanilla protein powder, banana flavor instant pudding mix, and almond milk until smooth.
Step 2: Add the almond milk gradually, a little at a time, until you reach a pudding-like consistency.
Step 3: In a jar or serving glass, layer the pudding mixture on the bottom.
Step 4: Add a layer of crushed vanilla wafers, followed by a layer of sliced banana.
Step 5: Repeat the layers once more to create two layers of each ingredient.
Step 6: Serve immediately or chill for a bit before enjoying.

Tips & Variations

To enhance flavor, use fresh ripe bananas and high-quality sugar-free vanilla wafers.
For a creamier texture, substitute almond milk with coconut milk or another favorite milk alternative.
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg between layers for an extra warm flavor.
Use different protein powder flavors like chocolate or plain vanilla for variety.

Storage

Store the pudding in a covered container or jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The wafers may soften over time, so it’s best enjoyed fresh. If stored, give it a gentle stir before serving. Reheat is not recommended; serve chilled or at room temperature.

How to Serve

Two clear glass jars hold creamy layered desserts placed on a white marbled surface. Each jar contains about four layers: a smooth light yellow custard or cream base, small soft chunks of light beige cookies or biscuits scattered inside, more creamy layers mixed with crushed cookie pieces, and a final dollop of cream on top. One jar has a long golden spoon sticking out, while the other is only partially visible. In the background, a yellow banana rests on the white marbled surface, with a dark backdrop behind it.

Scale

Base Ingredients

⅔ cup Non-fat Greek Yogurt (150g)
⅓ cup Whey Vanilla Protein Powder (30g)
4 teaspoon Banana Cream Flavor Instant Pudding Mix, Sugar Free (11g)
2 teaspoon Unsweetened Almond Milk (10ml)

Layering Ingredients

3–4 crushed Vanilla Wafers, Sugar Free recommended (14g)
½ medium Banana, sliced (60g)

Instructions

Mix the pudding base: In a mixing bowl, combine the non-fat Greek yogurt, whey vanilla protein powder, banana cream flavor instant pudding mix, and unsweetened almond milk. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated. Add the almond milk gradually if the pudding mixture is too thick to reach a creamy consistency.
Prepare the layers: Take a clean jar or dessert cup and start assembling the pudding by spooning a layer of the prepared pudding base at the bottom.
Add crushed vanilla wafers: Sprinkle a layer of crushed sugar-free vanilla wafers evenly over the pudding layer to add a crunchy texture.
Add banana slices: Place a layer of sliced banana over the crushed wafers.
Repeat layering: Repeat the layers—pudding, crushed vanilla wafers, then banana slices—one more time to form two complete layers of each component.
Chill and serve: Optionally, refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving. Enjoy your protein-packed, no sugar added banana pudding.

Notes

Use sugar-free or no sugar added vanilla wafers to keep the dessert low sugar.
Adjust the amount of almond milk slightly to reach your preferred pudding thickness.
This pudding can be prepared ahead and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
For a dairy-free version, substitute Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and use a vegan protein powder.
Banana cream flavor instant pudding mix should be sugar free to maintain the low sugar profile.
