Banana Split Fluff is a sweet, creamy, crunchy dessert salad filled with fruit. It’s filled with the same banana split flavors and traditional toppings, but made without ice cream or worry that it will melt.

Banana Split Fluff salad is a quick and easy recipe that turns a classic ice cream treat into a deliciously creamy “dump and go” dessert salad or side dish without worrying if it will melt!

This old-fashioned favorite takes just minutes to make simply by mixing fruit, nuts, marshmallows, a packet of pudding mix, Cool Whip, and chocolate in one bowl and then refrigerating until you’re ready to serve.

NO BAKE BANANA SPLIT FLUFF

Banana Split Fluff dessert salads are so easy to make simply by stirring a handful of simple ingredients in a bowl, setting it in the fridge to chill, spooning it into individual servings, and piling it high with the traditional banana split toppings.

With a base of banana pudding and crushed pineapple, this banana split dessert recipe is filled with mini marshmallows, mixed nuts, chocolate chips, whipped topping, and chopped fruit; it has the same flavors and textures as a classic banana split, but swaps the ice cream for a light and creamy fluff filling.

My favorite Banana Split Fluff salad doubles as a delicious fluff dessert to be served after dinner or as a fluff fruit salad side dish to accompany the main meal.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

CAN I MAKE MY BANANA SPLIT FLUFF IN ADVANCE?

This fluff salad dessert is best served the day you make it. However, it can be made ahead of time and kept covered in the fridge. Do not stir the banana slices into it until right before you serve it.

CAN I FREEZE FLUFF SALAD?
No, this fluff salad should not be frozen! If you freeze this fluff, you will end up with a melted, watery mess when it thaws.

CAN I MAKE A VEGAN VERSION OF THIS RECIPE?
Yes, you can make a dairy-free version of this dessert salad. Use coconut whipped cream or your favorite plant-based whipping cream alternative.

DO I NEED TO CHILL MY BANANA FLUFF BEFORE SERVING?
This banana fluff recipe can be served right after making it, but it is so much better if it has time to chill and let the flavors come together. I recommend allowing it to chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour.

CAN I MAKE HOMEMADE WHIPPED CREAM FOR THIS RECIPE?
You can absolutely make homemade whipped cream for your fluff. A simple way to make your own is by beating cold heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar for 2-3 minutes. See my easy homemade whipped cream recipe!
