Sliced bananas layered in the bottom of a graham cracker crust, topped with a cream cheese - dream whip layer, a blueberry pie filling layer and topped off with whipped topping and fresh blueberries! The best part about this recipe is that is makes 2 pies!

Feel free to link up in the same manner as we do on Sundays. I've been wanting to share this recipe for this 4 Layer Blueberry Banana Cream Pie for quite sometime now. This is my mother in laws recipe and one of my favorite pies.
She always make Blueberry banana Cream Pies for just about every holiday. My mother in law Linda has been making this pie long before I became part of the Butler family 15 years ago. It was Thanksgiving when I got my first taste, and believe me it was love at first bite!!!!
The best part about this recipe is that it makes two pies. One to share and one to keep for yourself. I do have to admit it's a bit hard parting with that second pie.The only way I have ever eaten this pie is with blueberry pie filling. But if blueberry isn't your thing then I think you could substitute any fruit pie filling. Let's get started and make some pie.

Oh Tina, this looks so good! Thanks for adding it to my blueberry linky! :)
Reading this post just made my stomach growl! It sounds so amazingly good. I'm always looking for new blueberry recipes - it's the one fruit my husband eats without complaining!
Your welcome Jane. I was so excited to finally have a blueberry recipe to contribute!
the country cook, this pie is so good. The combination of the bananas and blueberries is so tasty. Fingers crossed your hubby loves it.
Wow, that looks divine!
wow that looks so good! Have already printed it and am adding ingredients to my grocery list
how weird -- i didn't even know banana and blueberry went together well. it sure does look good.
I MUST try this! My favorite smoothie combo is banana blueberry, so I am ALL over it! Thanks for posting it :) :) :)
I love blueberry and banana together! When I make blueberry pie, sometimes I use half the blueberries and add some chopped up bananas to fill it. People look at me funny, but it's so good! This looks like another way to enjoy them IN A PIE. I love pie. Thank you!
That pie looks wonderful!
Une belle tarte qui semble délicieuse.
See soon.
I can tell that this will be a "love at first bite" pie for me too!!! YUM!
Thank you once again for hosting a Pot Luck Sunday/Monday link party! I always look forward to it. :-)
I love this combination but sadly my hubby doesn't... so I substituted strawberries for bananas and cherry pie filling for the blueberry pie filling and it was pretty tasty!!! Still wish that I could try your version... stinkin' hubby!!!
We made this today. My two year old daughter helped! This pie is seriously amazing! So so delicious. Light airy creamy - love the texture and banana/blueberry/creamy flavors. Perfection! Thank you for sharing!
Awesome pie except I seem to only be able to get one pie out of it. That's ok with me though :)
This was my momma's favorite pie. For some reason it was called a "Papoose Pie". She would often make it with cherries. Either way, it brings back wonderful memories. Thank you for sharing!
I have made this pie for years and always a big hit...I think I do like it better with regular baked pie shells and I have never put cool whip on top but sounds good to me. I lost this recipe and I thank you for posting it. I have seen other similar ones without the Dream Whip...I think that the Dream Whip adds it's unique flavor that makes this pie so special.
Thank You
