Notes

If you slice bananas too early, they may brown. Slice them right before layering to keep them fresh. You can substitute graham crackers with vanilla wafers, chocolate cookies, or any firm cookie you like. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days; the texture will soften but it will still be delicious. For a dairy-free version, use coconut cream and almond or oat milk.
