Ingredients

• 250 grams Digestive biscuits (or graham crackers)
• 100 grams Unsalted butter
• 400 grams Sweetened condensed milk
• 3 medium Bananas
• 300 milliliters Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 20 grams Dark chocolate (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Place the digestive biscuits in a food processor and blitz until finely ground. Alternatively, place them in a resealable plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin.

Step 2

Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Combine the melted butter with the biscuit crumbs and mix until the texture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the biscuit mixture into the base and sides of a 23cm (9-inch) tart tin with a removable base. Use the back of a spoon to smooth it out evenly. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Step 4

To make the caramel, empty the can of condensed milk into a heatproof bowl. Place the bowl over a simmering pot of water (double boiler-style), ensuring the water doesn’t touch the bottom of the bowl. Stir constantly for 15–20 minutes, or until the condensed milk turns a deep golden caramel color.

Step 5

Remove the biscuit crust from the fridge and pour the caramel over the base, spreading it evenly. Let it cool for 10 minutes, then return to the fridge to set for at least 1 hour.

Step 6

Slice the bananas into thin rounds and arrange them in an even layer over the set caramel.

Step 7

Whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Gently spoon the whipped cream over the bananas, spreading it out evenly.

Step 8

Grate the dark chocolate over the top as a final garnish.

Step 9

Let the banoffee pie chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving. Carefully remove it from the tart tin, slice into portions, and serve!
