Made with bananas, homemade whipped cream, banana pudding, and pecans, this Banana Pecan Cream Pie will give you taste of comfort every time you bite into it!
My children only have 6 days of school left. Yes. 6 days. Some people may think I’m crazy for saying this, but I’m actually happy that summer is coming up. I’m sure around this time next month I may be eating those words, however, as it stands now, I am super excited at the idea of getting to spend some quality time with the both of them.
No homework to do. No rushing out the door in the mornings. No fighting the traffic.
Just us and our dog.
We do have the whole month of June booked with summer fun and travel, however, I’m looking forward to it all!
My daughter is old enough to learn how to make certain recipes on her own, so I’m planning on showing her how to make this one over the summer.
This is one that I learned how to make through my mom many years ago. It is very similar to this recipe, except in pie form. The graham cracker crust and the pecans on top are what makes this pie sparkle.
I do my baking on Sundays so Husband Man can take my creations to work and feed his co-workers/Airmen…and well…he did not want to bring this pie to work last weekend. At all.
Yes…I’m telling y’all…it’s that good! Try it and see for yourselves 😉
