MOM’S BANANA PUDDING
Mom used to make this banana pudding for my sister and me when we were kids. She always mashed the bananas because neither of us liked banana slices in it. The recipe came from her mother, and years later she sent me a picture of the old recipe card — worn, stained, and clearly loved from being used so many times over the many years.

STEPMOM’S BANANA PUDDING
Our second recipe, a banana recipe using cool whip and pudding mix, a popular one her family and friends would always request on any holiday or get together. Two family favorite Banana pudding recipes, both with bananas, both with vanilla wafers…. The old fashion from scratch recipe I grew with (Mom) and the quicker easier version my mother-in-law made (Moms). Both recipes turn out amazing. This recipe is surprisingly good, and addictive.
