- Опубліковано 28 лют 2024
- Banana pudding, a dessert often featuring layers of vanilla custard, crispy vanilla wafers or ladyfingers, and freshly sliced bananas, is a classic treat beloved by many. When served in a dish, it's sometimes served with a dollop of whipped cream or a meringue.
This dessert has become deeply embedded in the culinary traditions of Black communities, where it has been embraced and celebrated as a cherished part of their culture and gatherings. The adaptation and elevation of banana pudding within these communities highlight its significance beyond a mere dessert, making it a symbol of shared history.

Old school Banana Pudding was the best. Homemade custard and not the Pudding in the box.❤
🙌🙌🙌🙌
Exactly and my mom would make it all the time in her boilers on the stove and LORD HAVE MERCY! Today's play play pudding can't touch Mama's yesterday puddings. NO BOXES THERE!
Facts
You can't get banana pudding from a box.
@@christineperez7562 what are you talking about?
Cause we make it the best and from scratch..no box jello instant pudding..
I need that and a huge thing of peach cobbler . . . Oh and a slice of sweet potato pie 😊
Yes would have all three every holiday
Don't forget a slice of poundcake. These are my 4 favorite desserts.
Banana Pudding is definitely a southern staple.
It's an American staple. I've made this dessert many times.
@@christineperez7562sure is
My grandfather was from Augusta, Georgia. He would make a bomb banana pudding. I loved that first helping which was still a bit warm.
He also kept spoiled milk on hand for other baking he did. He was able to make cornbread taste cake-like.
Buttermilk makes things right! 😂❤
My mother had a recipe for the best coffee cake that she made when the milk spoiled. I can't find that recipe to save my life now.
Do you have the recipe? Market it and allow others to experience the delight of your family delicious recipe ❤.
When it’s lupe warm it doesn’t get any better
I don't care what color you are every body love good cooking. Period.
For y'all that don't like banana pudding 😂❤. I'll take yours.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Banana 🥣 Pudding is definitely my favorite dessert
I am half American and half Colombian and I love banana pudding
Back in the day black people eat banana pudding! It was every Sunday dinner desert and they used to put pecans in it.
I put walnuts on the top of my banana pudding dish! Tastes delicious! 😋 ❤
Everyone in America eats banana pudding
I love banana pudding 😋🤤
I was raised eating that, and my grandmother taught me how to prepare it from scratch, not no Jell-O box
I tried to make banana pudding once in my life and failed at it miserably I have never tried again I am going to get a recipe for it and try sometime soon
Oh please don’t give up it’s so easy I can make it with my eyes closed 😂😂😂🤣🤣 that’s to say how easy it is 😂😂 and so delicious 😋
Don't give up! I can't cook to save my life and when I do nobody but my pets are brave enough to eat it, but I've mastered banana pudding and I substitute Pepperidge Farm Chess cookies for vanilla wafers and sometimes add toasted coconuts or switch out bananas with mangos and you talk about mama slappin' delish (but I wouldn't suggest that especially if you've got a mama like mine)!!!! 🤭🤣🤣🤣🤣
I make it at least once a month
Lol
Don’t give up. Be sure not to walk away from the pot when stirring the pudding. It’s a delicate dance.
I reiterate: Great research and delivery. PLEASE drop the captioning or correct it before posting.
Banana Pudding, Peach Cobbler, Sweet Potato Pie, Lemon Chess Pie, Pound Cake....ALL essential desserts for any major food gathering of our beautiful Black culture.
Italian people love banana pudding
Banana pudding is my favorite dessert 😋. I love it 😊
Banana pudding is a great dessert, one of my favorites. I appreciate the chefs that have evolved it and keep it alive today
Banana Pudding has been a popular dessert in the South among African Americans ever since I remember.
It's an American dessert
@@christineperez7562 I didn’t say it wasn’t American, I know the popularity of it among Southerners of Africa decent.
Banana pudding, Rice pudding, and Peach cobbler with the crust on the bottom were my favorite ones to eat.
I love it when it's first made. I hate when the vanilla wafers get soggy
that's the best part when it's warm 😂😂
I love the wafers soggy in cold pudding 😂❤
Make the pudding without the wafers then when you grab a bowl put the wafers in or on top. Let it set to your liking or go ahead and enjoy the cookie crunch.
I never knew Banana Pudding was a black dish. I'm white and 71 and have been eating banana pudding since i was a toddler. My grandma would fix it for me every time I came to visit. It's my favorite pudding.
Mine too!! my mama would cook banana pudding, maybe twice a year it was so yummy she just passed. She was 74.
How did you find this channel?
@@KingofgraceSARARan across it on UA-cam
Most comfort foods are labeled soulfood
@@KingofgraceSARA🤣🤭
He didn’t say everyone Black loved it! It is a staple in black homes for generations. If, you don’t like it, let it ride. Damn! ppl don’t use their common sense. Banana pudding is a dish that is at the dinner table in black peoples homes, rather you like it or not. Plus, if you white nobody said whites don’t like banana pudding. It’s common sense.🙄🙄🙄
I don't think any of us, take it that seriously. I'm Black and I don't like it! Of course, that isn't a big deal, because I don't like the majority of desserts!😂😂😂😂😂
Can we not have foods that cater to our culture? If you have no problem with Tacos , Stir Fried Rice and Spaghetti and Meatballs you should not be coming after OUR FOOD with complaints.
I damn sure love it my mother's is the best ❤
Banana pudding is delicious! 😋
Just found this channel, really soft spoken, well put together and I'm happy to learn something new.
I love banna pudding it so good
I really enjoy your history of food
My family and friends from all regions of the United States have prepared this wonderful dish! You either like it or you do not.
I can remember grandma's banana pudding from the 50s. We are white and from West Virginia. Some of my greatest memories are of eating at grandma's table.
Curious? How different are today's bananas (or wafers) taste from those memories?
@@wells5150the Nabisco vanilla wafers is the best version with vanilla pudding & bananas layered. The recipe is on their cookie box! 😊
Haven't had it in years.
My favorite 🤤, my aunt is a cook and makes everything from scratch and she only make banana pudding for me not even her own kids🤗🙏 .Been eating it since 80
Ok now I’m starving! I love both banana and bread pudding. My Grandmom made the best.
at 3:45: I had a "record scratch" moment.. hearing the mention of fried banana slices... oh... my... goodness..
> part of why I like bananas foster, etc.. that'd be a game-changer to add a bit of caramelization to the bananas..
-might not be a bad idea to try to run some homemade vanilla cookies; squares might seem more efficient for the pan as well.
sponge cake /trifle style or ladyfingers, to go to the origins, might be an interesting play on things as well.
All black people do not like banana pudding so stop generalizing
That look good yummy 😋 ❤❤❤❤❤
It's delicious.
Crazy because I was just asking my cousin about this a couple days ago😂
What are the odds?😂😂😂😂
Won't eat without strawberries my Grandma and Great Grandma always made it with strawberries .
I loves me some banana pudding. I liked mine baked hot or cold with whipped cream 😊
Im not black, but i love banana pudding too! Hope theres a recipe in this video.....❤❤❤
Thanks, Man! I never had legit banana pudding before! I'll have to try making some! G'stuff as always!
Wow! Great information! Thank you for sharing.
I'm white and I love Banana pudding. Matter of fact I've got some in my fridge right now❤❤❤
So you being white .who cares
😂😂🤣 homemade? 🤣
@@thetruequeen6747 Yes homemade just like my mom made in the 70s when I was a child growing up. I used her recipe. I'm 55yrs old
@@scubatrucker6806 God bless ur soul I’m 67 and still make it for my daughter that’s 35 she absolutely loves my banana pudding and when eating it she’s like a child all over again ☺️😀
@@thetruequeen6747 I feel the same way everytime I make any of my mom's recipes. 😍😍
I'm a black man and I hate banana pudding. Always have since I was a kid.
Awwww 😢
I hate all pudding. Doesn’t matter the flavor.🤢🤮
@@HB-yk4utI am the same way!😂😂😂😂 I don't like mushy! Eew!
Pecan pie, peach cobbler, coconut chocolate cake and banana is at all of our family events.
I put crumbles cake as well as Nilla Wafers! I have been told my banana pudding is the best ever but I have never had banana pudding I didn't like but I from te South so I grew up around great cooks!
Never heard of banana pudding, but seeing that image in the beginning of the video jogged my memory of seeing it. Maybe I saw it on television or someone brought it to a gathering and it was barely touched.
Girl bye we had it every holiday dinner my whole life
Thanks for the history. I love banana pudding even though I don't like bananas
Banana Pudding is one of my Favorite Desserts and to make good Banana Pudding use Banana Cream Pudding because it's have that banana flavor in the Banana Pudding instead of using vanilla pudding and still it's doesn't matter but Banana Pudding is one of best desserts still use Banana Cream Pudding
My fav🤤🤤🤤😋🥣🥣🥣🥣
When you go to someone's house for dinner in the deep south ...you expect made from scratch banana pudding. Not that instant stuff out of a box layered with some sprayed on whipped cream.
You want to taste that buttery, heavenly pudding married to them bananas and wafers ...melting in your mouth .🎉🎉🎉
Nothing like a good HOMEMADE banana pudding & in not talking about jello instant pudding & cool-whip
Really, I didn't grow up eating banana pudding
I don’t like banana pudding like that now I want one after watching this 🤣
Banana pudding LOOKS sooo delicious!😂😂😂😂😂😂
I actually do not care for banana pudding or rice pudding. But I know a lot of people love it.
"because its delicious???"
😋 haven't had banana pudding in awhile.
Africans who were enslaved in America brought alot of food, drums and string instruments over from Africa.
Our contributions made the soul of America.
The banjo was brought over from West Africa via the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade.
They entertained mazza with soulful music, church music, the country music that was stolen now called country music.
It's normal music the music Beyonce is singing. That use to be church music.
Change the words around and put Jesus in it.
Amen
🙏 ✝️
So africans brought suitcases with instruments and food to america?..lol what food and instruments? Blackbamerucan culture a d food have nothing to do with africans? What african tribe cooks banana pudding?😂😂😂😂
Who doesn't like banana pudding? This is not a black dessert this is an American dessert. I've made this many times.
Make it using the powder or from scratch I don’t care I’ll eat it all 🤤
Am I the only one who eats banana pudding without bananas? 🤷🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️😂🤣😆
The best banana pudding is cooked home made and baked in the oven first then put in the fridge to chill …..it’s the Louisiana way …..not to mention the best cookies used to make it is Jackson cookies not Nabisco ….
I’m 56 and I have never eaten banana pudding. My Father makes it and ALL my family & friends love it. He makes his own pudding & uses the nilla wafers.. I just never liked the look of it..🤷🏾♀️
I like the look of it, but I don't like banana pudding. There are two people that I met and tasted their banana pudding at an event and I did like it, but overall, nah!
I hardly eat it as a black man.
The title is misleading. Once you've tasted banana pudding you won't forget it. Jesus is Love
All "Southern " delicacies are the recipes of The Children of Yisrael !
I am white didn't know banana pudding was black just thought it was BBQ or southern I love it tho
Has anyone ever heard of chess pie and know the history??? I think it's made with corn meal and vinegar, which sounds awful. I've only had it once and much to my surprise it wasn't as bad as I anticipated. And I have a friend who makes watermelon rind pie, I've never tried that one but I'm told it's delish as well!
Me wondering if I'm going to lose my blk card for not eating or liking banana pudding 😂 I can make it though
Banana pudding has nothing to do with black or white, some people of all color enjoy💯
I don't like banana pudding and I'm Black
I never heard this before , I know more “white folks” who like banana pudding.
I think everyone loves banana pudding. At least if you like bananas 🍌🍌🍌🍌
Cuz high sugar 🤷🏼♀️
You know what Bannana plantation in south America meant for the people down there!!
Nope not all black people like banana pudding.
No..
I love Watermelon and Kool Aid
I am as white as it gets and I love banana pudding. We have it at most all gatherings. It's good food regardless of who created it.
Everybody can't make it..And if it's made from box it ain't banana pudding.. folk get an attitude when they find out something else is of black creative 😂
@@elisageorge2261 I make it from scratch.My grandma taught me how. No, I don't make it from a box.
@@elisageorge2261 and you shouldn't ever assume that you know someones ethnicity. I happen to be Cherokee and Choctaw.
@@swatson1190 Sorry I just know it's been known throughout history even today many black folk been known and still known to carry the torch as great cook's.. .. .. I remember my Mom used to babysit for a while police officer and his wife three times a week..the child taste my mom cooking.. afterwards he didn't refused to eat his mother's cooking.. they paid my mom for many years to come and cook for him... well the family..
@@swatson1190 But you just replied to someone else you're white as it gets 🤔😂
Okay so now tell us why white people love it and why my Latino people love it.
Some Black people.
I keep hearing the phrase “southern style”. It’s becoming clear it’s code for something that can’t be said in Jim Crow America.
I think it is a bit of a sweeping statement that blacks love banana pudding. I am in my 60s and I don't think I have had banana pudding in my life. In fact, I have never seen it made or presented at family reunions, cookouts, or other get-togethers. Nor has it ever come up in conversations. It seems if it is such a popular dish I would have at least heard it mentioned in passing. Maybe it's a regional thing, I don't know, but it is definitely not ubiquitous among blacks.
Are you from the northern part of the United States or the southern part?
I don't recall any of my family making banana pudding, either. Both my paternal and maternal sides are large and love to cook. It doesn't mean that I just wasn't around for it, but for sure my mother, never made it. Perhaps, because I am the baby and I don't like most desserts.😂😂😂😂😂. I LOVE food!😂😂😂
@@padussiaI am from the south and pretty much, don't recall my paternal or maternal side making it. My mother never made it.
@@padussia I spent much of my childhood in Alaska and Kansas, but I've lived on the Northeast coast most of my adult life.
@@rosajohnson5212 Yep, my mother never made it either. I never knew banana pudding was a thing, and I've never seen it until this video. It looks kind of like baby food to me. No, thank you.
Not all black people like banana pudding. You shoulda gave this video a different title
nasty if you use instant pudding, always cooked
Don't use the word Picnic when referring to Black People EVER!
I don't like banana pudding or bananas. This doesn't apply to me.
And now the wafers are bioengineered. Shame . Shame. Can somebody please make some Non GMO vanilla wafers.
What african tribes cooks bannna pudding? Bannanas were in the americas. Africa has very few food croos today. American black culture Nd foods have nithing to donwoth africa or the snall amount of africans that came to america. If ao, where is this african culture at in America today? American culture is black american culture froms the foods to the music and dance. None of this cukture is found in africa
I don’t like bananas.
Such horrible Spelling!!!
Lmao people need to speak for them self's,all black people don't like banana cream wtf 🤔
I'm starting to get sick of these titles. Southern white people love banana pudding just as much as black people.
It was created by black people. that's the difference.
Well hit the dislike button. Im sick of those that say a woman's place solely in the kitchen. You probably too young to remember why table food was chewed first then fed to a baby at a certain month.
@@sharinaross1865 Actually I remember that. Thanks for the lame insult though.
@@Jordi7174 sorry you took that as an insult. You should eat some banana pudding.
@@Jordi7174 what part was an insult.
Everybody loves banana pudding. It’s NOT a black thing. Moms did homemade custard with wafers. It’s universally popular.
I bet it's a lot of food and desserts dating back to slavery white people first saw black people make but we weren't credited for it.. Black people have a history of known to be great cooks..
@@elisageorge2261 of course! Most likely everything that ever passed thru the kitchen from biscuits, pancakes nshit on a single. Moms taught the chefs.
I do not like banana pudding. Yuck!
I don't like banana pudding. 😕 🤢
i hate banana pudding.
Yeah...why? Cuz a ard carrying black perso, I hate it 🤢🤢
I can't eat that. All blacks do not love banana pudding. I can't stand to smell it. Stop speaking for all of us. Say some. Hell, you can even say most that (you) know love it. I don't. My kids don't. Don't know whether my grands do since I don't make it. Maybe the other relatives do. Don't know. Don't care. And my ancestors come from Africa.
I don't love it. banana pudding = Diabetes
I dnt like it😢
