So what piped my interest in this delish creation was a special on Food Network. They were talking about a baker in NYC and one of her signature desserts was a Banoffee Pie. What is Banoffee Pie you ask? Simple: Banana + Toffee = Banoffee! The best part about this recipe is you make homemade toffee by boiling a can of condensed milk! What in the ….. no wonder the lady is on Food Network. She’s a gosh darn GENIUS! This recipe is easy, indulgent, and of course amazingly delicious. It will blow your mind!
Banoffee Pie
Ingredients
- 3 bananas
- 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- Prebaked graham cracker pie crust
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Remove label from a can of condensed milk and place in a deep saucepan filled with water, covering the can completely.
- Bring to a boil, cover and boil for 2 1/2 hours. *Make sure to check and keep the can completely submerged the entire time.
- Remove the can from the boiling water, let cool, and open. YOU JUST MADE TOFFEE!
- You can keep sealed in the can and use at a later time (keeps for months!) or use right away.
- Now make your whipped cream using a COLD (I store mine in the freezer an hour before using) bowl and beater.
- Add heavy cream, vanilla, and brown sugar to bowl and whip on high until fluffy and soft peaks form.
- Keep refrigerated until ready to use.
- Peel and slice bananas into thin slices.
- Lay banana slices in the pie shell, pour can of toffee on top, spreading to cover, then top with mounds of whipped cream.
- Refrigerate to firm up until ready to serve.
