banana pudding with coconut whipped cream vegan gluten free best recipe

I’ve been dreaming of this dessert for a long time now…Banana Pudding with Coconut Whipped Cream!

Banana cream pie is one of my all-time favorite desserts. Here is a simplified and veganfied version of the old-fashioned classic! Add a dollop of coconut whipped cream and a few vanilla cookies for a kid-approved treat! I’m not a huge fan of pie crust, so substituting with a few animal crackers hits the spot and adds a little crunch!

Here is a great tutorial on how to make coconut whipped cream from Oh She Glows! I use maple syrup to sweeten mine!

This pudding is void of hydrogenated oils, artificial flavorings, food coloring and trans fat!
