Ingredients
 

For Graham Cracker Crust

For the Filling

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In medium bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, sugar, cinnamon, salt and water. Press into 9-inch deep dish pie plate. Bake for 8-10 minutes. Cool completely.
  • If using the coconut, turn oven down to 325 degrees. Spread shredded coconut onto parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake 5-7 minutes or until lightly browned. Stir frequently to prevent over-browning.
  • Mix together pudding mix and milk. Refrigerate at least 5 minutes or until firm.
  • Using electric mixer, whip heavy whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  • In separate bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add sweetened condensed milk and pudding and mix completely. Fold in 1/2 of the sweetened whipped cream. 
  • Spread a thin layer of filling on the sides and bottom of the cooled crust. Cut 3-4 bananas into coins and press into the filling. Spread remaining filling on top of bananas. 
  • Top with whipped cream. Optional, sprinkle toasted coconut on top. Chill at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

You may want to make extra whipped cream if you'd like to decorate the top of your pie. Use the same ratio of sugar to heavy whipping cream.
