Method

  • step 1

    Crush the digestive biscuits, either by hand using a wooden spoon, or in a food processor, until you get fine crumbs, tip into a bowl. Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted butter until fully combined. Tip the mixture into a 23cm loose bottomed fluted tart tin and cover the tin, including the sides, with the biscuit in an even layer. Push down with the back of a spoon to smooth the surface and chill for 1 hr, or overnight.

  • step 2

    Beat the caramel to loosen and spoon it over the bottom of the biscuit base. Spread it out evenly using the back of a spoon or palette knife. Gently push the chopped banana into the top of the caramel until the base is covered. Put in the fridge.

  • step 3

    Whip the cream with the icing sugar until billowy and thick. Take the pie out of the fridge and spoon the whipped cream on top of the bananas. Grate the dark chocolate over the cream, if you like, and serve.

Awesome. Family were so happy. Many thanks. A straightforward recipe was all I needed.

The butter ratio is way too high. I used about 80g of butter and it was enough for a crumb base. 150g of butter is wayyyy too much. DO NOT BEAT THE CARAMEL. This will make it far too runny, even after it sets. Just use it straight from the can when it's nice and thick. If you do, you’ll have lovely…

Love this recipe. So easy. The butter to biscuit worked for me and I don't beat the caramel, just spread it around. (Missed that bit of the recipe, so had not problems). I add a bit of vanilla essence to the cream. And a tiny bit of salt flakes to the caramel. Easy, cheap, good way of using up…

Terrible recipe - banoffee pie is one of the easiest desserts to make so how could the bbc get it so wrong! The base was sloppy, too much butter (I hadn’t read the comments) and the cream was too light. Disappointing and embarrassing, as I made this for family.

When you beat the Caramel, whisk It by hand, it helps with the sloppiness of the caramel. Also place the finished banoffee pie in the freezer overnight and then take in out in the morning or before you eat it.
