Banana Pudding Bars

If you love the flavor of bananas, then you will love these Vanilla Banana Pudding bars.

This recipe combines the sweet taste of vanilla wafers to the rich taste of banana pudding to make these wonderfully delicious home baked bars. 

Serve them up warm with a topping of homemade vanilla ice cream and you are sure to get rave reviews! Because they are nice and thick, they freeze well too, so quite often I will double the recipe so that I can tuck some away to thaw when needed.

These Banana Pudding Bars are a delicious snack that your family will love. Make sure to pin them for the next time that you want to bake with bananas!
