Banana Cream Cake with a homemade OREO cookie crust is the perfect No-Bake dessert for any occasion! Made with a luscious banana pudding filling made completely from scratch and topped with whipped OREO cream, this banana cream pie recipe is always a hit.

Oreo Banana Cream Cake is made without box-pudding mixes but holds together perfectly! A delicious homemade vanilla custard filling that holds together well enough to serve it, but is still creamy and delicious, layered with fresh bananas inside an Oreo cookie crust.

This is the PERFECT banana cream pie! The homemade banana cream pie filling is easier to make than you might think and has a perfectly balanced taste. Many recipes for banana cream pie use banana pudding mixes but I’m not the biggest fan of artificial flavors and often find the banana taste in these recipes overwhelming. That’s why I love this recipe! Even if you’re not a big banana fan you’ll want a second slice of this cake!!

The banana flavor is not overwhelming but pairs perfectly with the homemade custard and the Oreo cookies. Don’t we all love the chocolate and banana combo?! This easy banana pudding cake recipe makes a pie that has a filling that won’t turn into a sloppy mess while cutting slices and tastes so delicious, you have to try it!

Tips and Tricks on how to make Oreo Banana Cream Cake

To save time you can also use a storebought 9-inch OREO pie crust for this recipe
Instead of using half milk and half heavy cream you can also use 3 cups half-and-half
Making pudding from scratch is super easy but if you like you can also use two 3.4 oz. packages Vanilla Instant Pudding. Prepare the pudding as directed on the package using 2 and 3/4 cups half-and-half and use it in place of the homemade pudding
I like to use a springform pan for this recipe because it is easier to get pretty slices but you could also use a 9-inch pie plate instead
Make sure to give this pie several hours in the fridge so it sets up properly and doesn’t get sloppy when you cut into it
This cake should be stored in the fridge. It will last for about 2 to 3 days in the fridge. Refrigerate covered loosely with plastic wrap and top with whipped cream just before serving
