Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams graham cracker crumbs
- 100 grams unsalted butter, melted
- 50 grams brown sugar
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 3 large bananas, ripe
- 240 milliliters heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 20 grams dark chocolate, grated (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and brown sugar. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
To make the caramel, place the can of sweetened condensed milk (unopened) in a large saucepan and cover it completely with water. Bring the water to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 2 hours, adding more water as needed to keep the can submerged.
Carefully remove the can from the saucepan and allow it to cool completely before opening. Once cooled, spread the caramel evenly over the chilled crust.
Peel and slice the bananas into thin rounds. Arrange the banana slices in an even layer over the caramel.
In a chilled mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the banana layer evenly.
Optional: Sprinkle the grated dark chocolate over the whipped cream for added garnish and flavor.
Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the layers to set.
Slice and serve your Yummy Banana Caramel Pie chilled. Enjoy!
