This easy to make banana pudding matcha recipe is so indulgent and much cheaper than going to an overpriced cafe!
Matcha has been a part of my daily routine for over a year now; it’s delicious and loaded with antioxidants. While I love to mostly enjoy it plain, I also love to experiment with new flavors!
Banana Pudding Matcha has been trending on its Tok (for good reason) and many cafes have been offering it on their menu. Only issue is its very expensive and most times includes dairy.
I wanted to share this recipe for the matcha girlies who love to make their lattes from home to save money and also have a delicious drink. This recipe can easily be made dairy free or with regular milk, the sky is the limit!

How to make Banana Pudding Matcha Latte
Step One:
Grab a bowl and mash your ripe banana with a splash of milk (about 1-2 tablespoon), agave, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla until it has combined.
It is optional to strain to remove the pulp, otherwise set this puree to the side. **Feel free to use an immersion blender to combine the ingredients for a smoother puree!
Step Two:
To make the cold foam: Measure your heavy whipping cream and combine with 1-2 tablespoons (depending on how prominent you want the banana taste).
Use a frother to combine and thicken for about 60 seconds or until the cold has nearly doubled in size. Briefly set to the side.
Step Three:
Let your matcha whisk soak in some hot water (only a small amount, do not submerge your whisk!!) for about 3 minutes to soften the bristle while you measure out 1 tsp of matcha.
Make sure to sift so there are no clumps. Using your whisk, pour in 2-3 tablespoons of warm (NEVER BOILING) water into your matcha and which in an ‘M’ like motion for the next 40 seconds. A nice foam layer should appear on the top.
**Alternatively, you can use a frother to combine the matcha powder with the water until no clumps are present.
Step Four:
Grabbing a glass, put some of the banana puree on the bottom and fill the glass with as much or little ice as you desire.
Pour in the milk followed by the matcha shot and top off with the banana pudding cold foam. Serve with a straw and enjoy!
