My family is southern & my dad absolutely loved banana pudding. When he passed away (as per tradition) people were showing up at the house with more food than you could imagine. A little girl came in we had never seen before carrying a big tub of banana pudding. She was crying as she told us my dad had told her how much he loved it. She had never had it before & wanted to make it because she liked him so much. She said he was like a grampa to her. She had us all in tears! It was perfect, we couldn't had made better than she did on her first try. Of all the food brought, that pudding disappeared first.
I got so bored with cooking after fifty years and my cooking priority became how long will it take to clean up the mess ...and then along came John ...Chef John that is ...he doesn't use 2 pots 3 pans 3 large appliances numerous spoons scales and gadgets ...simple easy fun interesting mouthwatering food ...makes you want to eat which means cook ...thanks Chef John ...my hero ;-)

I’m 28 years old and yesterday was the first time I made pudding from scratch. It was smooth and delicious, so bye bye Dr. Oetker. Thank you Chef John, your videos have already improved my cooking so much
You just took me back to my grandmother's kitchen with the old white enameled appliances and Formica topped table. The adults sat around the table talking, laughing, rolling cigarettes and enjoying Grandma Gert's baked banana pudding. That was my dad's favorite, next to pineapple upside down cake, and she knew it. Life in the South often revolved around kitchen tables when I was a kid - good company and good food and lots of good memories. Thanks Chef John, for letting me recall some of those memories.
Thank you for not using jello for the custard ❤️ I worked for a southern family and the lady of the house prided herself on making everything from scratch .Now I can make this like her
I have started watching your videos and I’ve grown addicted to a daily “fix” because of your narrating - It just gets me in a very positive mood, so thank you 🙏🏻 😊
I'm from Michigan and I die a little every time I see someone use pudding mix... I'm going to be in the Philippines and really want to make this there. The bananas over there are out of this world good.
"Bless your heart" definitely IS a compliment ... 80 percent of the time. But if you're not Southern you're never going to be sure which percent you're in when you hear it.
@@irmese06 I agree. I was born and raised in the deep south. My grandmother would have never used "Bless your heart" as a show of disrespect. They are words of love and comfort in my family.
I was born and raised in Texas, as were both of my grandmothers. One of my grandmothers, when she made scratch banana pudding, very much like this recipe, she also added a layer of fresh blueberries in the middle. Outstanding! And that's how I make scratch banana pudding as well. Other than that, the recipes are 98% identical!
Chef, you are single-handedly helping this RN cook, laugh, and appreciate my way through this pandemic. I have enjoyed you for a while and appreciate your efforts immensely.
@Cookie Adams - I think you’ve summed it all up perfectly on behalf of everyone who is a fan of Food Wishes and Chef John specifically. On a seperate note I think I can speak on behalf of everyone worldwide when I say thank you to you, and all the other nurses, doctors, scientists, lab staff, radiology, urology, cardiology, paediatric, internists, hematology, oncology, orthopedic, neurology, general surgery, dentists, bariactric, podiatry, emergency medicine, geriatric, psychiatry, nephrology, interns, health care students, volunteers, medical staff, medical examiners, administration staff, pharmacy staff, insurance staff, dietary, infectious disease, dermatology, gynaecology, obstetrics, endocrinology, pulmonology, otolaryngology, social workers, rheumatology, anaesthesiology, surgical technicians, paediatric, grief counselling, immunologist, transporters, medical records, housekeeping, facilities, engineering, security, cafeteria, physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, funeral, crematory, cemetary and religious staff. I hope that I’ve covered everybody and if I’ve erroneously omitted any any medical group, health care or support area/staff out I truly apologize. Basically if you care for a patient, their loved ones, family or friends we want to thank you for all you’ve done for all of us. Your dedication, sacrifice, love, compassion, quick thinking and care/support can never be thanked enough. You’ve given all you can and sadly so many have made the ultimate sacrifice with your own lives. I sincerely hope they each of you know and understand how much the world over we are grateful and appreciative of all you do. You are our heroes. May god bless each one of you and guide us to a solution and cure to permanently eradicate this abhorrent disease. I bid you peace and love. Thank you.....
ALL GONE : You expressed my appreciation so well, All Gone. I shutter to think how devastating this virus has become and join you in thanking every health care worker for their care and vigilance. It seems that so many youngsters are gambling with their and our chances of exposure with their Covid-19 parties, which jeopardizes everyone, and causes old folks like me alarm. Each of the specialists you listed is at high risk of exposure by any of these thoughtless persons and the clinicians I have needed are necessarily restricting the numbers of people permitted in their offices at one time. I have seen women bringing 3 or more children with them when Grandma needed a check up letting the kids run wild in the waiting rooms. Poor Grandma. It’s enough to raise any sane person’s BP. Society is at risk of falling apart at the seams! I think of how many unseen workers are involved in just one patient’s care / visit. We thank these extraordinary health care providers and continue to remember them in our prayers and ask our gracious Heavenly Father continue to protect them and their families.They are indeed our heroes!
Yes! My mom is from the south, and I grew up eating this homemade banana pudding. Especially if we were sick with a sore throat, she would make this for us to eat warm. Thanks for sharing this!
FINALLY!!!!! I wish I could hit the "thumb up" button a million times! I'm so happy to see this "real" 'nanna (as the southern women in my family call it) puddin'! I seriously want to break down in tears with the vapors when I see or hear of someone using an instant pudding to make this, and/or using whipped topping instead of the meringue! That's not real "nanna puddin', people! THIS is a real 'nanna puddin'! This is what I grew up having, made by my grandma and my mama. They taught me the proper way to make it, obviously, and I have never even been tempted to use store-bought pudding mixes or, heaven forbid, instant pudding mix! This just brought back so many memories! Thank you so much for sharing this! I'm the only granddaughter, and i don't have kids, so this dish, as I was taught, will die with me.
@@KatGates100 It depends on what part of the south you are in. I have had it served to me ether way. And wile I agree that it taste better cold I will not turn down some hot yummy goodness.
For what is worth, for the first year of watching your videos I took it for granted you were a Southerner. I think all that Cayenne and the wonderful food you were preparing had me convinced you grew up in NOLA. And for the record, I've been living in the South for the last 20 years.
Just made this, and of course it was incredible. Chef John - thanks for years of great recipes and cooking instructions. Yours are the only recipes on the internet that I trust!
just tried the receipt. Chef John made everything so simple that I had no problems following it. It turned it well and was delicious! Love how you can go to allreceipes and print it out. Will look for another recipe to try out. Here in California, this dessert would be about $15-$25 at the bakery. THANK YOU Chef John!!!!
Hi, I made this today and I got to say it's the best I've ever had. It came out perfect. I had 3 pieces today, gave+some to my daughter and family and I have some left for tomorrow. Thank you so much!
Me too, everything else I am a "rule player". But food is to be fun and it is a great surprise when it is not exactly the same everytime. I know my recipes so well I just eyeball them and test the taste now. I think I am like Grizelda from Hilarious House of Frightenstein, toss it all in and taste.
That looks delicious... and really beautiful presentation for a pudding. My grandmother would make banana pudding with Nilla wafers... I'm going to have to give this a shot.
I watched this video to get ideas for desserts but it just makes me cry. Nothing wrong with the video it just reminds me of the times my mom made banana pudding with my grandma who's nickname was "Puddin" I never thought something simple as a delicious dessert would make me miss her so much.
madilove323 banana pudding is great hot or cold, I don't understand why people are so easily offended lol. I'm from the south too (I don't know why that even matters, this isn't a southern dish) but my family always served it hot and then we had the leftovers for days afterwards.
I’m from Mississippi and I grew up with warm banana pudding (with toasted pecans) every Sunday after dinner (which most people call lunch). I haven’t made it in a long time. May have to try it out again. Good memories! Thanks!
Never had banana pudding warm but that sounds good too...also try toasted pecans instead of adding chocolate chips...it’s delicious Well wishes from Texas
As a full blown LIFE LONG SOUTHERNER I can tell you with all sincerity that “Bless your heart”can mean “good” or “not so good.” 🤣😂 We use it BOTH ways. So what ever you have done or said just before we say BLESS YOUR HEART determines exactly what it means. The context in which you used it was PERFECT! 🥰🥰
@@JulianSildenLanglo my sweet sweet granny'd say, just knead it til it FEELS, right...just add enough liquid til it looks right. And that woman could cook & bake!
I grew up in the Carolinas eating it cold but I had friends in Arkansas who ate it straight out of the oven. A revelation! Much more buttery flavor! Warm is my preferred way now.
The best temp to serve this (and the way I've almost always had it) is room temp. Also most real Southern cooks actually like the whipped topping you buy in the freezer section, and some of us use homemade whipped cream instead of merengue. I like it whatever way it comes, as long as there's thick happy pudding, soggy nilla wafers, sweet but not mushy bananas, and something white and sweet and creamy-ish on top. By the way, I have this recipe in pie form- not banana cream pie but banana pudding pie. Basically banana pudding just like you made, but thicker, in a pie pan, with a crust made of crushed nilla wafers. It's delightful.
@@farvista As someone else who called their nan nanny, did you think it was weird when you grew up and realised it was also a term for a glorified babysitter? Lol.
Yes! In fact it means you're a bit addlepated and cattywampus in the ole brain pan. Right up there with: Ya'll come back now, ya hear? Which means Don't let the screen door slap you on the ass as you run to your car, 'cause I got this here shotgun loaded with rock salt, ya heathen. 😇
@@lightwavz One of the many positives of having a southern girlfriend is that I fully understand what you said. Not too bad for a Yankee like me. But I will say that you guys do everything better down south. I can't wait to go back.
Chef John, from one Southerner (UK London😂) to another that was wonderful. Thank you for sharing. Your voice is as soothing as your great tasting recipes.❤
Just made it, came out perfect and taste is delicious. Added some chocolate chips as well and no one could wait for it to cool before wanting a serving. Great video recipe/tutorial!
Acabo de descubrir este canal. Debo de confesar que como oriunda y residente fronterizo con Estados Unidos, y con familia de varias generaciones viviendo en dicho pais, muchas de estas recetas las he disfrutado desde niña y por años, así que me dio muchísimo gusto volver a recordar y tener a la mano estas ricas recetas. Muchas gracias
Years ago, I was in a restaurant that served a banana cream pie with meringue topping like this. It was great! Much better than a lemon meringue pie, but I haven't seen it since. My guess is that if you put this recipe in a pie-shell, instead of using the cookies, it would be the same thing. I think I will try it some day.
I fell in love with banana pudding when I lived in Texas - since moving back to Australia & not being able to buy Nilla Wafers I miss this delectable dessert
My wife told me that Yankees baked banana pudding. I looked it up, and unfortunately your channel populated in the search results. Congratulations on your custard and meringue pie. You renounced your Southern heritage when you put that dish into the oven 😂 All kidding aside, I love your recipes Chef John, the Mancakes won my FIL over, and my wife insists that I make mashed potatoes all the time (your recipe). Roasted Chicken Noodle Soup is amazing as well.
Lol I’m a yankee also, but living in SC right now & just last week my dear friend made this. Not quite the same but very similar & it was delish! Now I can’t wait to make this for her & tell her I’m a former southerner in my a past time😂❤️👌🏼🍴🥂cheers!
I got stuck at the egg whites. Went through 9 eggs. I remembered this video I watched for half a day and it help get it together. My topping was perfect. Thank you!!
Now this is what i’m talkin about. A true cook! None of that fake banana pudding crap. But real ole skool down home southern style banana pudding #yummy😋
I am sure that there is a certain generation (wanna guess?) that has never heard of manually whipping cream and meringue. Fortunately, they support the fake whipping cream industry.
I love those good ol' Southern recipes so much. Great as always Chef John! I've made this to take into the hospital where I work tonight as this pudding will be nice for the other nurses and I before we start our night shift lol. I totally agree vanilla wafer cookies go perfectly with fruit and custard. A scrumptious combo of flavours 🍮
That banana pudding is looking so delicious and would have me ready to eat it all up and be looking for more. I love all the ingredients you have in it and have eaten it before when growing up and my grandmother cooked it. She knew how to steal my heart in the kitchen with her cooking and I hope you all have a great new week and getting ready to make more desserts like this also.
I've eaten a ripened banana nearly every day for years. I'm not a dessert guy, and so I seldom make desserts -- BUT this recipe seems so easy I could be having this for breakfast... and also an excuse to bring to people I haven't seen in awhile
Although I do like the 'nilla wafers (like we say in the South), I would sprinkle crushed graham crackers as a substitute, Then it is closer to Banana Meringue Pie (which I LOVE)!!
Just made it for Father's Day! Super easy and delicious -- not too sweet so easy to get carried away and eat too much. Ended the day with an empty plate so success!
I made this recipe exactly as described with one exception I didn’t have lemon on hand so I substituted lime. as a foodie and home cook and I say with all honesty this is the best banana pudding you will ever eat. Is it as easy as chef John says? Yes indeed ❤️.

"Add a little touch of sugar"

Better than those channels that say a teaspoon but end up adding 4 tbsp
I was wondering about that. In my experience, a "touch of sugar" usually starts at around ¼ cup or so.

Bananas are never too ripe for eating. They get intense in flavor, and nature has already done most of the digestion for you so it's win win.

gotta be cold and made the day before and you had better not mess with it before hand and get caught at it!
madilove323 banana pudding is great hot or cold, I don't understand why people are so easily offended lol. I'm from the south too (I don't know why that even matters, this isn't a southern dish) but my family always served it hot and then we had the leftovers for days afterwards.
I'm a southerner from the great state of Texas. Bless your heart Chef John!
"I realize you're not here for my geographically based reincarnation theories."
Um... am I in the wrong room?
Exactly, I wanna here more of his theories.
Yes. Down the hall and to the right. Don’t go left. That’s the room for arguments about the proper way to pronounce pecan.
Made this for my mom for mother's day. It was so good!
As a Southerner in my current life, serving it cold is absolutely, perfectly acceptable.
I’m from Mississippi and I grew up with warm banana pudding (with toasted pecans) every Sunday after dinner (which most people call lunch). I haven’t made it in a long time. May have to try it out again. Good memories! Thanks!
“I love chocolate dipped bananas, but find them extremely awkward to eat in public”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's why you slice them and dip them.
Just do it like a true Chad would. The deeper the better. Savor the flavor.
Love them as much as i love boiled fried and cooked banana!
Bite from the side , like a lady .
Woke my poor husband up howling with laughter at that one. I have to learn not to watch Chef John in bed. 😇
I have made this twice so far and it was enthusiastically gobbled up by everybody! Thanks Chef John, you are a fabulous teacher😋❤️.
Never had banana pudding warm but that sounds good too...also try toasted pecans instead of adding chocolate chips...it’s delicious
Well wishes from Texas
I will not eat cold banana pudding. I put it in the microwave for 30 seconds.
I only eat warm banana pudding ❤️
I'm from NC. We have it both ways. It's delish cold after being baked.
As a full blown LIFE LONG SOUTHERNER
I can tell you with all sincerity that “Bless your heart”can mean “good” or “not so good.” 🤣😂 We use it BOTH ways. So what ever you have done or said just before we say BLESS YOUR HEART determines exactly what it means. The context in which you used it was PERFECT! 🥰🥰
"the next southern grandma that uses a thermometer will be the first" - lawd if that ain't the truth LOL
...I don't get it 🤔
@@Sssssssslf It's a reference to southern grandmas to do all cooking by feel.
@@JulianSildenLanglo ahh I see, makes sense now! That's funny 😄
Julian Silden Langlo or any grandma tbh
@@JulianSildenLanglo my sweet sweet granny'd say, just knead it til it FEELS, right...just add enough liquid til it looks right. And that woman could cook & bake!
I made this two weeks back. I reduced the sugar down to a few tablespoons. It's one of my favourite deserts to make. Easy to make.
The old tapa tapa, and the shaka shaka! Love it!
Unlike the swearing and vulgar language used on another popular train wreck "cooking" show..., this show is classy.
I grew up in the Carolinas eating it cold but I had friends in Arkansas who ate it straight out of the oven. A revelation!
Much more buttery flavor! Warm is my preferred way now.
Chef John, sometimes a banana is just a banana.
The best temp to serve this (and the way I've almost always had it) is room temp. Also most real Southern cooks actually like the whipped topping you buy in the freezer section, and some of us use homemade whipped cream instead of merengue. I like it whatever way it comes, as long as there's thick happy pudding, soggy nilla wafers, sweet but not mushy bananas, and something white and sweet and creamy-ish on top.
By the way, I have this recipe in pie form- not banana cream pie but banana pudding pie. Basically banana pudding just like you made, but thicker, in a pie pan, with a crust made of crushed nilla wafers. It's delightful.
Granny definitely did not have banana liqueur. If I asked for it she'd probably beat me with a wooden spoon for asking for "liquor".
Miss ya, Granny.
BUT...my nanny DID keep a bit of blackberry brandy cordial. Just as a little tonic, you see. Sure was tasty.
Jacob Roeland I thought the same thing!
My Grandma used cooking sherry in a lot in the kitchen. Sometimes she even put some in the recipes.
@@farvista As someone else who called their nan nanny, did you think it was weird when you grew up and realised it was also a term for a glorified babysitter? Lol.

I made that for mother's day! It was AMAZING!!! So creamy and not overly sweet! I loved it! Thanks Chef John ❤️
Chef John of Food Wishes is THE Best Chef In The World!!!
I grew up having this and when it’s warm it DEFINITELY Taste Better!!!
Bless your heart... definitely not a compliment down here in the south.
I'm in Tennessee, where are you?😀
It's like "at least you tried", but we don't even want to imply you tried..
Yes! In fact it means you're a bit addlepated and cattywampus in the ole brain pan.
Right up there with:
Ya'll come back now, ya hear? Which means
Don't let the screen door slap you on the ass as you run to your car, 'cause I got this here shotgun loaded with rock salt, ya heathen. 😇
@Terri Light Hehehehe!😂
@@lightwavz One of the many positives of having a southern girlfriend is that I fully understand what you said. Not too bad for a Yankee like me. But I will say that you guys do everything better down south. I can't wait to go back.
Chef John, from one Southerner (UK London😂) to another that was wonderful. Thank you for sharing. Your voice is as soothing as your great tasting recipes.❤
22 Minutes. 3,800 views. Chef John rules!!!!!
My God, I ate this all my childhood and even today my mother does it for us from time to time when we go on a holiday here in Brazil ... Very good !!!
My all-time favorite dessert 😋 Thanks Chef John!!
Mine to
Just made it, came out perfect and taste is delicious. Added some chocolate chips as well and no one could wait for it to cool before wanting a serving. Great video recipe/tutorial!
I'm here so early there's no description 😮 love your humor and your recipes chef John! (:
Acabo de descubrir este canal. Debo de confesar que como oriunda y residente fronterizo con Estados Unidos, y con familia de varias generaciones viviendo en dicho pais, muchas de estas recetas las he disfrutado desde niña y por años, así que me dio muchísimo gusto volver a recordar y tener a la mano estas ricas recetas. Muchas gracias
NO WAY,!! The dessert of all desserts 💕💕💕💕💕💕
As a Texan person…. Meringue is the best for banana pudding and many other pies, and is so much better than whipped topping. Amen!!!
Years ago, I was in a restaurant that served a banana cream pie with meringue topping like this. It was great! Much better than a lemon meringue pie, but I haven't seen it since.
My guess is that if you put this recipe in a pie-shell, instead of using the cookies, it would be the same thing. I think I will try it some day.
I fell in love with banana pudding when I lived in Texas - since moving back to Australia & not being able to buy Nilla Wafers I miss this delectable dessert
My mom makes this!!!! I love it! ...yes, I’m southern. ☺️
I think I was a farmer in a previous life. A southerner is just as good for me. Great recipe
My wife told me that Yankees baked banana pudding. I looked it up, and unfortunately your channel populated in the search results. Congratulations on your custard and meringue pie. You renounced your Southern heritage when you put that dish into the oven 😂 All kidding aside, I love your recipes Chef John, the Mancakes won my FIL over, and my wife insists that I make mashed potatoes all the time (your recipe). Roasted Chicken Noodle Soup is amazing as well.
As a southern gentleman myself, I give you honorary standings ! Thank you for the great recipe 🙂
My favorite Pudding, Baked Banana. Amazing recipe Chef John. Mouth watering indeed!
Lol I’m a yankee also, but living in SC right now & just last week my dear friend made this. Not quite the same but very similar & it was delish! Now I can’t wait to make this for her & tell her I’m a former southerner in my a past time😂❤️👌🏼🍴🥂cheers!
Bless your old Southern Soul. I am going to gain so much weight trying to make this
And then you will gain even more eating it!
I got stuck at the egg whites. Went through 9 eggs. I remembered this video I watched for half a day and it help get it together. My topping was perfect. Thank you!!
This looks amazing! Although my wife and I live in the south, we have never been served warn pudding! Might be worth a try, though.
My grandma used to bake hers, and this takes me home! Thanks!
The question wether to serve warm or cold has a simple answer: Make 2 puddings. One to eat warm and the other to eat cold.
Yes♡♡♡
LOL LOL😁😁😁👍👍👍👍👍👍
Now this is what i’m talkin about. A true cook! None of that fake banana pudding crap. But real ole skool down home southern style banana pudding #yummy😋
Thank you for confirming that store bought whipped topping is a crime against humanity and resembles nothing like food.
Why isn't it food? It's made with the best crude oil money can buy ...
Cool Whip rules. Meringue drools :P
I am sure that there is a certain generation (wanna guess?) that has never heard of manually whipping cream and meringue. Fortunately, they support the fake whipping cream industry.
Big Whip is at it again !! Big Cow must be stopped!!
I love those good ol' Southern recipes so much. Great as always Chef John! I've made this to take into the hospital where I work tonight as this pudding will be nice for the other nurses and I before we start our night shift lol. I totally agree vanilla wafer cookies go perfectly with fruit and custard. A scrumptious combo of flavours 🍮
As a Southerner having lived in the South my whole life, I've eaten a lot of banana pudding. I have never once had it served warm.
Amen, Brother!
Me either. That may be a midwestern thing
Yeah, I've lived in the south my whole life. It's always cold.
That’s cause you don’t serve it warm. You cook it then chill it overnight
I have (Alabama):)
That banana pudding is looking so delicious and would have me ready to eat it all up and be looking for more. I love all the ingredients you have in it and have eaten it before when growing up and my grandmother cooked it. She knew how to steal my heart in the kitchen with her cooking and I hope you all have a great new week and getting ready to make more desserts like this also.
Wow, I could literally jump through my computer screen and eat that pudding!!!!😊❤💖
I've eaten a ripened banana nearly every day for years. I'm not a dessert guy, and so I seldom make desserts -- BUT this recipe seems so easy I could be having this for breakfast... and also an excuse to bring to people I haven't seen in awhile
Although I do like the 'nilla wafers (like we say in the South), I would sprinkle crushed graham crackers as a substitute, Then it is closer to Banana Meringue Pie (which I LOVE)!!
Just made it for Father's Day! Super easy and delicious -- not too sweet so easy to get carried away and eat too much. Ended the day with an empty plate so success!
Y'all are, after all, the Rose Ann Rosanadanas of your Puddings of Bananas....
*Bananananas
I made this recipe exactly as described with one exception I didn’t have lemon on hand so I substituted lime. as a foodie and home cook and I say with all honesty this is the best banana pudding you will ever eat. Is it as easy as chef John says? Yes indeed ❤️.
