Method

  • step 1

    Whizz the biscuits to crumbs in a food processor or put in a strong plastic bag and bash with a rolling pin. Add the butter and whizz again briefly, then tip the buttery crumbs into a 22cm fluted tart tin. Use the back of a spoon to press the crumbs into the tin and up the sides until the whole case is lined. Chill for at least 10 mins.

  • step 2

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 8. Halve the bananas lengthways and tip into a shallow roasting tray or baking dish. Squeeze over the lime juice, scatter with the brown sugar and bake in the oven for 15-20 mins until caramelised. Leave to cool slightly, then thoroughly mash and spread evenly over the tart base.

  • step 3

    Tip the caramel into a saucepan, bring to a simmer and bubble for a few minutes to thicken. Add a pinch of flaky sea salt. Crush the banana chips using a rolling pin on a chopping board. Take the pan off the heat and stir in most of the banana chips, then spread the mixture over the banana layer and put back in the fridge for at least 4 hrs to set.

  • step 4

    To make the peanut butter cream, beat the peanut butter with the icing sugar and 140ml of the cream until smooth. Whisk the rest of the cream until it just holds its shape, then fold through the peanut butter cream to ripple. Top the tart with pillows of the whipped cream. Scatter with the rest of the crushed banana chips and serve.

Made this several times and it is amazing, the only changes I made was used whipping cream instead of double,omitted the peanut butter and added grated chocolate on the top. I made sure to leave time for each layer to set in the fridge before adding the next one. A firm family and friend favorite 😍…

question

I left the base with the banana mixture and toffee mixture on top, in the fridge last night and this morning it’s as liquid as soup…. Any idea where I went wrong ? I expected the toffee to harden further ….

question

If I made this pie in a dish large enough that i could sink into it and disappear, should I adjust the temperature or keep it the same and extend the baking time accordingly?

You might find the pie is difficult to portion or remove from the tin, but should set fine - no need to change the roasting time of the bananas. Thanks, Anna - Good Food team.

Banoffee pie is not American. It was invented by a chef in East Sussex

Thanks for your question. You can make this a day ahead. We'd suggest scattering the banana chips on top before serving.
