Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the almond flour, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and salt until well combined and crumbly.
Press the almond flour mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch tart pan, ensuring an even thickness across the base and up the sides.
Bake the crust for 10–12 minutes, or until it is lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
Peel and slice three of the bananas and place them in a blender or food processor.
Add the lemon juice, coconut cream, vanilla extract, and cornstarch to the bananas and blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour the banana mixture into a saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it begins to thicken (about 5–7 minutes).
Pour the thickened banana filling into the pre-baked tart crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Chill the tart in the refrigerator for at least two hours, or until fully set.
Before serving, slice the remaining banana and arrange the slices on top of the tart.
Optionally, dust the tart with a light sprinkle of powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
Slice and serve the tart chilled.
