Ingredients

• 250 g Digestive biscuits
• 100 g Unsalted butter
• 1 can (400g) Sweetened condensed milk
• 3 whole Bananas
• 300 ml Whipping cream
• 2 tbsp Powdered sugar
• 25 g Dark chocolate (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

1. Prepare the base: Crush the digestive biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or place them in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin.

Step 2

2. Melt the butter over low heat. Stir it into the biscuit crumbs until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

3. Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a 23cm (9-inch) loose-bottom tart tin. Chill the base in the fridge for at least 15 minutes while you prepare the filling.

Step 4

4. Make the caramel: In a saucepan, pour the condensed milk and cook on low heat, stirring constantly, for about 20–30 minutes until it thickens and turns a golden caramel color. Ensure you stir continuously to avoid burning or sticking.

Step 5

5. Pour the caramel over the chilled biscuit base and spread evenly with a spatula. Let it cool to room temperature, then chill in the fridge for about 1 hour to set.

Step 6

6. Just before serving, slice the bananas into thin rounds and arrange them over the caramel layer.

Step 7

7. Whip the cream with the powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the banana layer, creating a swirled texture if desired.

Step 8

8. Optional garnish: Finely grate or shave dark chocolate over the top of the whipped cream for a decorative touch.

Step 9

9. Serve immediately or store in the fridge until ready to eat. Banoffi Pie is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
