Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt, plain (nonfat)
- 1 cup Dark chocolate chips
- 2.5 cups Reduced-fat milk
- 1 package Sugar-free instant vanilla pudding mix
- 3 Bananas, sliced
- 2 cups Whipped topping, light
- 2 tablespoons Dark chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium-sized bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and Greek yogurt until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form a crust.
Bake the crust for 5 minutes, then set it aside to cool completely.
While the crust cools, melt the dark chocolate chips in the microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until smooth and fully melted.
Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the cooled crust, then refrigerate for 10 minutes to set.
In a large bowl, whisk together the reduced-fat milk and the sugar-free vanilla pudding mix until it thickens (about 2 minutes).
Slice the bananas and arrange them in a single layer over the chilled chocolate layer in the crust.
Pour the vanilla pudding over the banana layer, smoothing it out evenly with a spatula.
Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the ingredients to set.
Before serving, spread the light whipped topping over the pudding layer and garnish with dark chocolate shavings, if desired.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your lighter Black Bottom Banana Cream Pie!
