BANOFFEE PIE



Banoffee Pie image

With generous layers of dulce de leche, bananas and whipped cream, this dazzling pie is not for the faint of heart. The banoffee or banoffi pie, a mash-up of banana and toffee, was created in 1971 by the chef Ian Dowding and Nigel MacKenzie, the owner of the Hungry Monk, a now-closed restaurant in Sussex, England. The original recipe called for a traditional pie crust, homemade dulce de leche and coffee-flavored whipped cream, but we've simplified it for the home cook by using a graham cracker crust, store-bought dulce de leche and plain whipped cream. If you like, you could add a teaspoon of instant coffee granules to the whipped cream.

Time 30m

Yield One 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/4 cups/155 grams graham cracker crumbs (about 10 whole graham crackers)
5 tablespoons/70 grams unsalted butter, melted
1/3 cup/65 grams granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 1/2 cups/600 milliliters store-bought dulce de leche (about 20 ounces)
3 large bananas, peeled and sliced about 1/4-inch thick
1 1/2 cups/360 milliliters cold heavy cream
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon instant coffee granules (optional)
Chocolate shavings or fresh coffee grounds, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Make the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar and salt. Stir until fully incorporated and sandy. (When you pinch a bit of it between your fingers, it should hold together.) Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Using your fingers or a flat-bottomed cup, press the mixture into the pie plate and up the sides. Make sure it is well packed. Bake until set, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 2 days.
  • Spoon the dulce de leche into the pie crust and spread into an even layer. Pile in banana slices into a relatively even layer (they should overlap). Transfer the pie to the refrigerator while you make the whipped cream.
  • Make the whipped cream: Using a handheld mixer or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract and instant coffee, if using, on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes. Spread the whipped cream on top of the bananas, making sure to spread the whipped cream to the edge, totally covering the bananas (this will help prevent them from browning). Chill the pie, uncovered, for 2 hours and up to overnight.
  • To serve, sprinkle the pie with chocolate shavings or fresh coffee grounds, if desired. Store leftover pie in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 5 days. The whipped cream may lose some height, but the pie will be no less delicious.

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups crushed graham crackers, about 11 crackers
1 stick butter (1/2 cup), melted
2 large ripe bananas
2 cups heavy cream
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, grated

Steps:

  • Pour the can of condensed milk in a medium saucepan and cook over low heat for about 45 minutes stirring frequently. Be careful not to burn as it sticks to the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the crushed crackers to a food processor. Pour in the melted butter and pulse until it sticks together and the graham crackers get pulverized. Pour the graham cracker mixture into a 9-inch spring form pan and press with your hands or a 1 cup measurer to evenly distribute on the bottom of the pan. Chill to set for about 15 minutes in the refrigerator.
  • Pour the dulce de leche over the graham cracker base. Spread evenly. Slice the peeled bananas and arrange over the top covering the entire surface. Whip the cream until firm and spread over the top. Sprinkle top with cinnamon and grated chocolate. Serve.
