Satisfy your autumn cravings with this easy pumpkin spice banana pudding – a delicious blend of pumpkin spice pudding with banana and gingersnap cookies.
I’ve never really had banana pudding before, probably because I was not born and raised in the South. It sounded odd in the beginning, and I wondered how I could ever enjoy something like this.
Many years later down the road, I tried banana pudding from a bakery, nope never again. It had an artificial banana taste, and it drew me away from ever eating a banana pudding ever again.
A couple more years down the road I decided to make the Magnolia’s Bakery banana pudding recipe. Even though I’m sure it’s not authentic I enjoyed it.
With fall officially here I heard that Magnolia’s bakery has a seasonal pumpkin-flavored banana pudding. So as odd as it sounded, I ventured out and made it. My family isn’t a fan of banana pudding, so I wanted to create a single-serving pumpkin spice banana pudding recipe.
And to my surprise, It’s pretty good. It is so perfectly spiced and goes so well with the bananas. I tried it with Biscoff and ginger snaps and while I did enjoy both the ginger snaps stood out more. Give this recipe a try! I promise you won’t regret it. The best part about this recipe is the small portion.
