What do I need?
For the Base
- 200 g plain sweet biscuits
- 80 g unsalted butter, melted
For the Caramel
- 125 g caster sugar
- 2 tbsp water
- 70 mL cream
- 25 g butter
For the Cream Layer
- 250 mL cream
- 1 tbsp icing sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 2 ripe bananas, sliced
How do I make it?
- Make the base by crushing the biscuits into a fine crumb using a food processor. Separate 2 tablespoons of the crushed biscuits and set aside for garnish. Stir the melted butter into the remaining biscuits and then spoon the biscuit mix into the base of 4 glasses. Push gently with the back of a spoon to form the base, then refrigerate while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
- Make Caramel Sauce by adding caster sugar and water to a heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. When the sugar has dissolved, increase heat and let boil until it turns a rich golden colour, then stir in cream and butter. Set aside to cool.
- When Caramel Sauce has cooled spoon a layer over the biscuit base in each glass. Layer sliced banana in glasses.
- Whip the cream with icing sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form. Spoon cream over the bananas and serve topped with reserved biscuit crumb.
TOP TIPS
- If you’re short on time you can use a store-bought caramel sauce.
- Refrigerating the assembled Banoffee before serving will allow the layers to set slightly and the flavours to meld. If refrigerating don’t put the biscuit crumb on top until serving.
