In a medium saucepan, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
Add coconut milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and salt to the mashed bananas and stir to combine.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with almond milk until fully dissolved. Pour into the banana mixture and stir well.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook while continually stirring for about 5-7 minutes until the mixture thickens.
Remove from heat and stir in chia seeds. Allow the pudding to cool slightly before refrigerating for at least 2 hours or until fully chilled and set.
Once chilled, prepare the shooters by crumbling gluten-free vanilla wafers and splitting them equally among the serving glasses.
Spoon a layer of banana pudding over the crumbled wafers.
Top with a dollop of dairy-free whipped topping.
Repeat layers until the glasses are full, ending with whipped topping.
Garnish with a small slice of banana or a whole gluten-free vanilla wafer if desired.
Serve chilled and enjoy your delicious dairy-free banana pudding shooter.
