Banoffi Pie
12 ounces uncooked short crust pastry
1.5 tins condensed milk (13.5 ounces each)
1.5 pounds firm bananas
375ml of double cream
Half a teaspoon powdered instant coffee
1 dessertspoon caster sugar
A little freshly ground coffee
Preparation: - Preheat the oven to gas mark 5 (400F,). Lightly grease a 10in
x 1.5in flan tin. Line this with the pastry thinly rolled out. Prick the
base all over with a fork and bake blind until crisp. Allow to cool. The
secret of this delicious pudding lies in the condensed milk. Immerse the
cans unopened in a deep pan of boiling water. Cover and boil for 2 hours
making sure that the pan does not boil dry
(*see CAUTION). Remove the tin from the water and allow to cool completely
before opening. Inside you will find the soft toffee filling.
Method: - Whip the cream with the instant coffee and sugar until thick and
smooth. Now spread the toffee over the base of the flan. Peel and halve the
bananas lengthways and lay them on the toffee. Finally spoon or pipe on the
cream and lightly sprinkle over the freshly ground coffee.
*CAUTION: - It is absolutely vital to top up the pan of boiling water
frequently during the cooking of the cans. 2 hours is a long time and if
they are allowed to boil dry the cans will explode causing a grave risk to
life, limb and kitchen ceilings.
