Banoffee Pie Made Easy
Banoffee pie is an English pie made from bananas, cream and toffee (from condensed milk or dulce de leche) on a base of biscuits and butter. Sometimes chocolate, coffee or both are added.
Banoffee pie needs no oven, so beginners can follow along easily. Anyone who loves ripe bananas will especially enjoy it, thanks to the smooth banana, whipped cream and caramel combined with the crunchy base, all working together beautifully. Whether you make it for yourself or as a gift for someone you love, it isn't difficult at all.

Caramel Ingredients
- 65 g sugar
- 75 g fresh cream
