  • Assemble the Breakfast Pudding
    In serving dishes or bowls, start layering your easy banana pudding. Beginwith a layer of the pudding mixture, followed by a layer of sliced bananas. Continue this layering process until you fill the dish to the top.
     You can add a layer of rolled oats or chopped nuts for added textureand nutrition if you choose.
  • Chill the Pudding
    Cover the assembled pudding with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate forat least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the pudding to firm upslightly. If you have time, letting it chill for 1-2 hours will enhance theflavors even more.
