Bananas Foster Banana Pudding makes a mouthwatering southern dessert and will feed a crowd. It tastes like traditional Banana Pudding, but better. Since it’s flavored like the famous New Orleans dessert, it would be perfect for a Mardi Gras party.

 
There’s much more flavor in this Bananas Foster Banana Pudding because instead of just adding plain banana slices to the banana pudding, they are first coated in a brown sugar and cinnamon mixture and then you flambé with rum.

 
Next the banana slices get layered with a homemade custard and lots of vanilla wafers, and then topped with a thick layer of whipped cream.

 
Banana Pudding is such a great make ahead dessert for a potluck or party. You want to make it at least 4 to 6 hours in advance. The day before is even better so the flavors have time to blend and the vanilla wafers get soft. They’re my favorite part.  
 
When making Banana Pudding, you want ripe, but not overripe bananas. The banana peels should be yellow, but not with lots of black spots on them.
