Blueberry Banana Cream Pie





This was a fun experiment & I can't wait to make it again! I did something whack to the crust and it stuck to the pie pan like gangbusters- so I served it more like a cobbler (aka a mess) vs. in actual "slices" (which I definitely hope to have next time).






Crust~
Inspired By HoneyMaid
1 1/4 C crushed graham cracker
1/4 C Sugar
5 T melted butter
Mix ingredients and press into pie dish using the back of a spoon.
Chill for 1 hour or bake for crisper crust about 15 minutes at 350.

Filling
3 ripe bananas chopped up
1 package Banana Instant Jell-o Pudding
2% Milk
1 can of blueberry pie filling
2 cups whipped heavy whipping cream
Sliced almonds

Prepare crust and let it cool. Spread blueberry pie filling in a layer on the crust. Top with chopped up bananas. Prepare Jell-o pie filling (I'd use a bit less milk than the suggested amount on the box)and use a spatula to spread over the blueberries and bananas. Chill 1 hour in the fridge for Jell-o layer to set.
Top with whipped cream and almonds.

Sounds like a delicious combo! Sorry about the crust sticking, I'm sure it was delicious regardless. :)

I don't know why, but I would have never thought of the banana/blueberry combination. This sounds wonderful!
