Very good banana pudding recipe with the coconut. I actually lightened it by using fat free milk with pudding, light butter and fat free cool whip. Kids ate it up. Came together pretty easy just took a little time to cook the coconut crust.

This banana pudding is a nice change from the traditional vanilla wafers. I love the incorporation of coconut and crunchy topping. The next time around I will also double the banana pudding amounts, as suggested in another review/rating. Great recipe!

Oh, this was fabulous! I halved the recipe and used an 8x8 pan, instead. I used unsweetened coconut for the topping and threw the pan in the oven along with a pumpkin pie I was baking at 350. It took about 20 minutes to brown, stirring every 5 minutes. I used Sugar-free White Chocolate pudding because it was all I had on hand, and 4 bananas because they NEEDED to be used up. I love the topping. I think this could easily be turned into a pie by using a graham cracker crust, then layering the pudding, bananas, and Cool Whip, then sprinkle with the topping. Delish!

This is delicious! Everyone needs to try it. Next time I will prepare it without bananas and just slice them and put them on top of individual servings since it is a large amount of dessert and the bananas will start to brown after a few hours.

I made this for company and got rave reviews. Here are a couple of changes I made: Use Brown sugar instead of white in the crust. I used the pudding recipe from Banana Pudding IV, it was richer and creamier because of the cream cheese and condensed milk in it. The coconut crust makes for a nice surprise in this pudding...I will definitely make it again.

This was a nice change from the old Nilla wafers and banana pudding mixture. We really liked the texture of the "crumblys". However, like other reviewers mentioned, it did NOT take 45 minutes to cook the crust...it definitely would have burned to a crisp!

This was yummy! It definitely didn't take 45 min to brown the coconut mixture. It would have burned if left in that long. I wonder how to turn the coconut mixture into a regular pie crust? I thought about trying it but decided to stay with the recipe.

This was a wonderful, portable desert. I forgot to buy cool whip, so I had to substitute with a pint of heavy cream. I whipped it up with 2 Tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of lemon extract. I also used 2 regular boxes banana and 1 french vanilla as suggested in one of the other reviews. It looked, smelled and tasted great.

This is great! I made it for a potluck, and made one small change- I layered the crust mixture/pudding/bananas parfait style in a great big glass bowl- beautiful, and super good!

This was GRRREAT! My husband loved it I even thought it was pretty good. I loved the crust it was Awesome! I did make a few small adjustment I used 2 regular sized boxes of bananna creme pudding and 1 box of french vanilla. I also used light whipped topping and reduced fat milk. Next time I''d like to try it with sugar free pudding to cut some of the calories . I also wanna try it with chocolate pudding.
