This is the banana pudding you make when you’re craving something sweet but don’t want to mess with eggs, a stove, or a pile of ingredients—and you still want to keep it high protein and low carb. It’s creamy, it’s rich, and it takes one minute to make. No baking. No fuss. Just three ingredients and you’re good to go.

Crushed wafers and whipped cream top a bowl of banana pudding.

Most healthy banana pudding recipes out there rely on eggs, protein powder, or thickeners, but this one skips all that. There’s no heating, no blending, no waiting around for anything to set. And unlike those versions that taste like protein powder with a hint of banana, this actually tastes like real banana pudding. Soft, creamy, and naturally sweet, thanks to a special ingredient and one sneaky high-protein ingredient that pulls it all together.

It’s the kind of dessert you’ll end up making on repeat—whether it’s post-workout, a late night snack, or when you’re just trying to make better choices without giving up dessert. And because it has around 20 grams of protein per serving, it actually keeps you full, too.

You can eat it as-is or get fancy and layer it into a parfait with low carb cookies or extra banana slices on top. But honestly? A cold spoonful straight out of the bowl hits just right for me.

Is banana pudding healthy

Banana pudding can be healthy—it really depends on how you make it.

Traditional versions are loaded with sugar, eggs, and processed ingredients, but this one keeps things light and high protein.

I use plain Greek yogurt for the base, sugar-free banana pudding mix for that classic flavor and to keep the carbs low, and keto vanilla wafers to keep the carbs in check.

It’s got around 20 grams of protein per serving, no eggs, and only three ingredients, so you’re getting a treat that’s actually a solid snack too.

Storage information

This banana pudding is perfect for making ahead. Just mix everything up, portion it into jars or containers, and store it in the fridge.

It’ll stay fresh for about 3–4 days, and honestly, the flavor gets even better after it sits for a few hours. It’s a great option for meal prep or when you want a quick, protein-packed snack ready to go.

If you’re adding low carb vanilla wafers, I’d wait to mix those in or layer them until right before serving—otherwise they’ll soften up a bit in the fridge. But if you don’t mind a softer texture (kind of like classic banana pudding), go ahead and add them in.

Freezing is not recommened.

High Protein Healthy Banana Pudding: FAQS

I’m a big fan of banana pudding but trying to cut back on calories—any tips?

Totally get it—I love banana pudding too, but sometimes I want a lighter option. You can skip the low carb vanilla wafers to cut the calories down to about 177 per serving. You could also use a lower fat or non-fat Greek yogurt to bring it down even more, just keep in mind that it’ll bump up the carbs a bit.

I know this healthy banana pudding recipe doesn't require but can I add it?

You can stir in a scoop of flavored or unflavored protein powder to bump up the protein—just mix it in after everything else until smooth. I like vanilla or banana-flavored protein for extra flavor, but plain works too if you want to keep it simple.
