Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Graham crackers
- 100 grams Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 400 grams Sweetened condensed milk
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
- 100 milliliters Heavy cream
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 3 Bananas, sliced
- 250 milliliters Heavy cream, whipped
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
In a food processor, blend the graham crackers until they turn into fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and granulated sugar, and pulse until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup to compact the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then let it cool completely.
To make the caramel filling, heat the brown sugar and unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
Pour in the sweetened condensed milk, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the mixture thickens and becomes a golden caramel. Remove from heat and stir in the heavy cream and salt. Let the caramel cool slightly.
Pour the caramel into the cooled graham cracker crust and spread it evenly. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set.
Once the caramel is set, layer the sliced bananas over the caramel evenly.
In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the banana layer, ensuring it covers the entire top of the pie.
Optional: Garnish with chocolate shavings for an extra touch.
Chill the completed pie for another 30 minutes before serving. Slice and enjoy!
