Ingredients

• 200 grams digestive biscuits (or graham crackers)
• 100 grams unsalted butter
• 400 grams dulce de leche (store-bought or homemade)
• 3 medium ripe bananas
• 300 ml heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon chocolate shavings or cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the biscuit base. Place the digestive biscuits (or graham crackers) in a food processor and pulse until they form fine crumbs. Alternatively, place the biscuits in a sealed plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin.

Step 2

Melt the butter in a small saucepan or in the microwave. Mix the melted butter with the biscuit crumbs until fully combined and the texture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the biscuit mixture firmly into the base of a 9-inch (23cm) pie dish, spreading it evenly across the base and up the sides to form a crust. Use the back of a spoon to smooth the surface. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill and set for at least 10 minutes.

Step 4

Once the crust is set, spread the dulce de leche evenly over the biscuit base, using a spoon or spatula. Make sure to cover the entire surface.

Step 5

Peel and slice the bananas into thin rounds. Arrange the banana slices over the caramel layer, covering it completely.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, whisk the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip.

Step 7

Spread the whipped cream over the sliced bananas, smoothing it out with a spatula or the back of a spoon.

Step 8

For an optional garnish, sprinkle chocolate shavings or a light dusting of cocoa powder over the whipped cream.

Step 9

Refrigerate the pie for at least 1 hour before serving to allow it to firm up. Serve chilled and enjoy!
