Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (or digestive biscuits)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 3–4 ripe bananas, sliced
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until well combined. Press into a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Chill for 15 minutes.
- To make the caramel, place the unopened can of sweetened condensed milk in a pot of simmering water, fully submerged, and simmer for 2 1/2 hours. Cool before opening. (Or use store-bought dulce de leche for convenience.)
- Spread the caramel evenly over the chilled crust and refrigerate for 15 minutes to set slightly.
- Layer sliced bananas over the caramel.
- In a bowl, whip the cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
- Spoon or pipe the whipped cream over the banana layer.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder, if desired.
- Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
- Use pre-made dulce de leche to save time and skip boiling the condensed milk.
- Best served the same day for freshest banana flavor, but can be chilled up to 24 hours.
- Add a pinch of sea salt to the caramel for a salted caramel twist.
- Use a springform pan for a neater presentation.
