Ever since Keira Knightley showed up at the door with a banoffee pie as an olive branch in the film Love Actually, I’ve had a fascination with the flavour combination of this remarkable treat. The flavours are truly a match made in heaven, and this recipe produces a wonderfully sweet and rich bannoffee pie that is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Best Banoffee Pie Ever
A real British classic - this is a simplified version of the typical banoffee pie which tastes just as good.

Instructions
Crush ginger nuts in a food processor (or place them in a plastic bag, seal and crush with a rolling pin), taking care not to make them too fine or they will turn to mush.
Melt butter in a saucepan or microwave.
Mix butter with biscuit crumbs.
Press into a round flan dish or tin.
Turn caramel out into a small bowl and stir until smooth.
Pour over biscuit base and spread evenly.
Place in fridge to chill for 20 mins.
Once chilled, slice bananas and arrange evenly over the top.
Place cream, icing sugar and vanilla in a bowl and beat until soft peaks form.
Spread over bananas.
Dust with a little cinnamon or nutmeg.
Place back in fridge until ready to serve.

Love this recipe the best of all the Benoffes. Even the fam reckons. Trouble is that they always want more made! Thanks
Its ok 3 out of 5 stars.
We all know dolce de leche or Condensed milk caramel, hasn’t got much of a caramel/toffee flavor as making caramel sauce yourself…
As much as I like gingernuts I used Griffins gingernuts and the ginger base overpowers everything in this recipe so I suggest NOT to use Griffins (I’m assuming Arnotts might be less gingery?) otherwise stick with the usual malt/superwine biscuits.
Will not be making this again, will stick with original that involves making your own caramel sauce.
