Introduction: Banana Layered Pie

This recipe makes one 9-inch pie.

Ingredients

2 1/4 cups cold milk
1 package (6 -serving size) Jell-o Vanilla Flavor Instant Pudding and Pie Filling
1 baked (Step 1 will deal with an unbaked) 9-inch  pie shell
2 medium bananas
1/2 cup thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping
Lemon Juice

As stated above Step 1 will show how to cook an unbaked pie shell. My local store only sells unbaked ones. So just skipped Step 1 If you don't need it.

Step 1: Step 1- Bake Pie Shell

1. Preheat oven to 400* F.

2. Remove frozen crust from package and let defrost (about 15 minutes).

3. Thoroughly prick bottom and sides of pie shell crust with a fork.

4. Place the pie shell on bake sheet and back on middle oven rack for 10-12 minutes, or until light brown.

5. Let the pie shell cool.

6. After the pie shell has cooled completely, pour desired filling into crust.

Step 2: Step 2- Mixing

Pour cold milk into bowl. Add pie filling mix. With electric mixer at low speed, beat until blended, about  1 minute.

Step 3: Step 3- Filling the Pie Shell

Pour 1/2 cup of the pie filling into pie shell. Slice 1 banana; arrange  slices on filling shell. Top with 3/4 cup of the pie filling. 

Step 4: Step 4- That's COOL

Blend the COOL WHIP Whipped Topping into the remaining pie filling. Spread over filling pie shell. Chill about 3 hours.

Step 5: Step 5- Finish

Slice remaining banana; brush the slices with lemon juice. Arrange banana slices on pie. Garnish with additional COOL WHIP, if desired.
