Ingredients

• 200 grams all-purpose flour
• 100 grams unsalted butter
• 50 grams granulated sugar
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons cold water
• 4 medium bananas
• 200 grams sweetened condensed milk
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, 50 grams of granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Cut the unsalted butter into small pieces and add it to the flour mixture. Using your fingertips, rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a small bowl, beat one large egg and mix in two tablespoons of cold water. Add this to the flour and butter mixture.

Step 5

Mix the dough until it just comes together. Form it into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and chill for 15 minutes.

Step 6

While the dough is chilling, slice the bananas and toss them with lemon juice to prevent browning.

Step 7

Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll it out on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch (23 cm) tart pan.

Step 8

Carefully transfer the dough into the tart pan, pressing it gently against the sides and bottom. Trim any excess dough.

Step 9

Prick the base of the pastry with a fork to prevent it from puffing up during baking.

Step 10

Line the tart shell with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Bake the crust for 10 minutes.

Step 11

Remove the weights and parchment paper and bake for an additional 5 minutes until lightly golden. Let it cool slightly.

Step 12

In a medium bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk and one teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Step 13

Arrange the banana slices over the cooled tart shell.

Step 14

Pour the sweetened condensed milk mixture over the bananas, spreading it evenly.

Step 15

Bake the tart in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until the filling is set.

Step 16

Allow the tart to cool completely before serving. Slice and enjoy!
