Upon demand and several requests by people after today’s radio show episode, I have decided to give in and write this post to guide the making of this super rich super sinful pie the banoffee pie.
Banoffee Pie Ingredients
- 100 g Melted Butter
- 250 g Crushed Digestive Biscuits
- 100 g Butter (For the caramel)
- 100 g Dark Brown Soft Sugar
- 397 g (1can) Condensed Milk
- 4 Small Bananas
- 300ml Whipping Cream
- Grated Chocolate
The Method
Making this banoffee cake/pie is easy and to start with we need to crumble the butter with the biscuits really well (I do it with clean hands rather than a fork) then press them inside the loose-bottomed 20 cm cake tin and put it in the oven till it’s golden in color.
In a saucepan, you would need to melt the sugar and butter and add the condensed milk while you keep stirring till they seem caramelized. pour it onto the base and leave it to settle and cool down there. Lift the pie from the tin and place it on a ready serving plate, slice the bananas; fold half of them into the softly whipped cream and spoon over the base and right on top you can sprinkle the chocolate or slices of bananas with a little caramel sauce.
