Ingredients:
For the crust:
- 1 1/2 cups of graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 (14 ounces) can of sweetened condensed milk
- 2 ripe bananas, sliced
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder (optional)
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until well mixed.
- Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.
- Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
- While the crust is cooling, prepare the toffee filling. Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a saucepan and heat it over low heat, stirring continuously, until it thickens and turns a caramel color, about 10-15 minutes. Be careful not to let it burn.
- Pour the toffee filling over the cooled crust, spreading it out evenly.
- Arrange the sliced bananas over the toffee filling in a single layer.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Spread the whipped cream over the bananas, covering the entire surface of the pie.
- Optional: Garnish with chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder for an extra touch of decadence.
- Chill the Banoffee Pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
