Variants and Alternatives
You can flavor your Banana Pudding with a sprinkle of Bitter Cocoa Powder or Cinnamon Powder for that extra bit of flavor, but it doesn’t alter the delicate flavor of each serving. If you like the flavor of Cinnamon, you can add a teaspoon of Cinnamon Powder directly to the vanilla pudding mixture. In this way you will get a delicious Banana and Cinnamon Pudding . If you want a stronger taste, however, you can also decide to replace the preparation for the vanilla pudding with the Chocolate Pudding .
Note:
For your Banana Pudding, choose bananas that are ripe, but not too soft or brownish.
How to Store Banana Pudding
The Banana Pudding can only be kept in the fridge, covered with cling film, for 24 hours.
