To use this banana pudding and pie filling, simply open the container. If you are making a pie, pour the filling directly into a pre-baked pie crust.

How to keep the rest
After opening, any unused portion of the banana pudding and pie filling should be transferred to a clean, airtight container. Refrigerate promptly. It is best to consume the remaining filling within a few days to maintain its freshness and optimal texture.
