Step-by-Step Guide to Creating Banoffee Pie

Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

For the Caramel Filling:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk

For the Pie Layers:

  • 3 ripe bananas, sliced
  • 2 cups whipped cream (homemade or store-bought)
  • Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Crust:

  1. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted unsalted butter, and granulated sugar. Press the mixture into a 9-inch pie dish, forming an even crust along the bottom and sides.
  2. Refrigerate the crust while preparing the caramel filling.

Caramel Filling:

  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt unsalted butter.
  2. Add brown sugar and sweetened condensed milk to the melted butter. Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a gentle boil.
  3. Reduce the heat to low and continue stirring for 5-7 minutes or until the caramel thickens. Remove from heat.
  4. Pour the caramel filling over the chilled crust, spreading it evenly. Allow it to cool and set in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours.

Pie Layers:

  1. Once the caramel has set, arrange sliced ripe bananas over the caramel layer.
  2. Top the bananas with a generous layer of whipped cream, spreading it evenly.
  3. Optionally, garnish with chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder for an added touch.

Final Steps:

  1. Refrigerate the Banoffee Pie for an additional 2-3 hours to allow all the layers to set.
  2. Slice and serve this delightful Banoffee Pie, enjoying the harmonious combination of buttery crust, luscious caramel, ripe bananas, and fluffy whipped cream.
