Instant Pot Banana Pudding Rice Krispie Treats Recipe Tips
- Use day-old Rice Krispies if possible: They hold up better when mixed with pudding and marshmallows.
- Melt marshmallows slowly: Prevents burning and ensures a smooth, creamy texture.
- Fold ingredients gently: Keeps the cereal from breaking and maintains a light, airy texture.
- Customize toppings: Add chocolate chips, banana slices, or extra crushed wafers for fun variations.
- Press firmly into the pan: Helps treats hold their shape and makes cutting easier.
Storing Instructions
- Room temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- Refrigerator: Keep covered in an airtight container for up to 4–5 days to maintain freshness.
- Freezer: Freeze for up to 1 month; thaw at room temperature before serving.
Instant Pot Banana Pudding Rice Krispie Treats Recipe Faqs
Can I use regular Rice Krispies instead of day-old? Yes, but day-old cereal holds up better and prevents the treats from becoming too soft.
Can I make these without an Instant Pot? Absolutely! Melt the butter and marshmallows in a large saucepan over low heat instead.
Can I use sugar-free pudding? Yes, sugar-free or low-sugar pudding works, though the treats may be slightly less sweet.
Can I add chocolate or other toppings? Definitely! Chocolate chips, banana slices, or extra crushed wafers make great additions.
How long do these treats last? Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days, in the fridge for 4–5 days, or freeze for up to 1 month.
Can I make these ahead of time? Yes, you can prepare them a day ahead; just let them set fully in the fridge before serving.
