This delicious banoffee pie is a classic British dessert made with a buttery biscuit base, creamy caramel filling, fresh bananas, and a layer of whipped cream. It's the perfect balance of sweetness and texture, and is sure to be a crowd pleaser at any gathering.
In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed digestive biscuits and melted butter until well combined.
Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish.
Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then let it cool completely.
In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the dulce de leche or caramel sauce until it becomes smooth and pourable.
Pour the caramel over the cooled crust and spread it evenly.
Arrange the sliced bananas on top of the caramel in a single layer.
In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
Spread the whipped cream over the bananas, making sure to cover all the gaps.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours before serving.
Serve chilled, and enjoy!
