There’s something magical about creamy banana pudding, warm caramelized bananas, and buttery graham cracker crust coming together in one glass.

These Bananas Foster Pudding Parfaits are my personal favorite when I want something indulgent but simple to layer and serve.

They’re a show-stopper for dinner parties and taste like a dreamy dessert from a fancy bistro.

Why I Love This Recipe

Layers of textures: smooth pudding, crunchy crust, and syrupy bananas

Banana lovers’ dream come true

Individual servings in wine glasses look elegant and festive

Every spoonful is rich, sweet, and comforting

What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

Graham cracker crust: Adds buttery crunch at the base

Instant banana pudding & cream cheese: Creates a tangy-smooth, creamy filling

Homemade whipped cream: Light and fluffy topping with vanilla notes

Bananas Foster: Caramelized bananas with brown sugar, cinnamon, and banana liqueur

Chopped walnuts: Toasty crunch to balance the softness

Pro Tips Before You Start

Let the cream cheese fully soften before mixing—it blends much smoother.

Whip the cream to stiff peaks for structure—it helps the parfait hold up better.

Don’t skip chilling the layers—it enhances the texture and flavor.

For extra wow, torch the banana slices lightly before layering.

How to Make Bananas Foster Pudding Parfaits

Step 1: Prepare the Graham Cracker Crust

Preheat your oven to 350°F.

Mix graham cracker crumbs, white sugar, and melted butter in a bowl.

Press the mixture into the bottom of a square baking dish.

Bake for about 6 minutes and let it cool completely.

Step 2: Make the Banana Pudding Layer

In a medium bowl, whisk the banana pudding mix with cold milk for 2 minutes.

Add softened cream cheese and beat until smooth using a hand or stand mixer.

Refrigerate until you’re ready to assemble.

Step 3: Whip the Cream

In another bowl, whip heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract on high speed.

Beat until stiff peaks form (about 3–4 minutes). Chill until assembly time.

Step 4: Cook the Bananas Foster

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.

Stir in dark brown sugar, banana liqueur, vanilla, and cinnamon.

Once bubbling, add banana slices and chopped walnuts.

Cook for 4–5 minutes until the bananas are tender and coated.

Step 5: Assemble the Parfaits

Spoon graham cracker crust into the bottom of wine glasses.

Add a layer of banana pudding, followed by a spoonful of warm bananas foster.

Top with whipped cream and repeat if desired.

Serve immediately or chill for a few hours before serving.

What to Serve It With

Serve with espresso or a splash of banana liqueur on the side.

A fresh mint leaf on top adds color and a hint of freshness.

Variations / Substitutions

Use vanilla wafers instead of graham crackers for a classic Southern twist

Swap banana liqueur for dark rum or maple syrup for a kid-friendly version

Add caramel drizzle between layers for extra indulgence

Storage & Leftovers

Store assembled parfaits in the fridge for up to 2 days.

If making ahead, store each component separately and assemble just before serving for best texture.

FAQs

Can I make these parfaits without alcohol?
Yes! Just replace the banana liqueur with a bit of extra vanilla extract or maple syrup.

Can I use store-bought whipped cream?
You can, but homemade whipped cream adds better texture and taste.

Can I layer this in a trifle bowl instead of glasses?
Absolutely. A trifle bowl works beautifully for serving a crowd.

Do I have to bake the crust?
Baking helps it hold together, but you can skip it for a crumbly, no-bake version.

What kind of bananas work best?
Use ripe but firm bananas so they hold their shape while cooking.

Can I make this dessert dairy-free?
Use plant-based butter, cream cheese, and dairy-free milk to adapt the recipe.

Can I freeze the parfaits?
Freezing is not recommended—the texture of pudding and bananas will change.

Final Thoughts

These Bananas Foster Pudding Parfaits are indulgent yet easy, perfect for making an everyday meal feel like a celebration.

Whether you serve them at a dinner party or enjoy one quietly on the couch, each spoonful is pure banana-caramel joy.
