Instructions
How To Make Healthy Banana Cream Pie
Begin by making the graham cracker pie crumble for the bottom of the banana cream pie. Crush the graham cracker cookies and then pour them into a medium bowl. Add the melted vegan butter or coconut oil, sugar, and mix.
Press the graham cracker pie crumble into the bottom of the pie dish until even. Top evenly with banana slices until the crust is covered (see photo above for reference).
In a large mixing bowl, make the healthy banana cream pie filling by mixing the non dairy yogurt with the powdered sugar and cornstarch (if using). The cornstarch helps with thickening. Pour the creamy filling on top of the banana slices. Add the coconut whipped cream on top. Then, top with banana slices.
Let this sit in the fridge for 2 hours. To serve, use a spoon to scoop out a portion into a small dessert bowl and enjoy cool!
