In a mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and reduced-fat milk until smooth. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
Peel and slice the bananas into thin coins. To prevent browning, toss the banana slices in lemon juice and set aside.
In a trifle dish, glass bowl, or individual serving cups, layer vanilla wafers at the bottom.
Add a layer of banana slices on top of the wafers, followed by a layer of the prepared pudding.
Repeat the layering process (wafers, bananas, pudding) until you fill the dish or cups, finishing with pudding on top.
Spread the whipped topping over the final layer of pudding for a creamy finish.
Optionally, garnish with a few crushed vanilla wafers or banana slices.
Chill the banana pudding in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Serve cold and enjoy!
