Bananoffee Pie

Bananoffee Pie

This is probably my current favorite dessert dish.  I have made this pie twice in the past month and each time I am blown away how tasty it is.  The pie is super easy to make and is unlike any pie I have ever tasted. 

The fist time I made this pie I made an incredibly stupid mistake and lost the use of my hand for about 10 hours....seriously.  I had to have the hubbs bathe our daughter since I only had use of one hand.  How, you ask?  Well, the secret to this recipe is boiling the can of condensed sweetened milk for 3 hours.  After it is boiled for 3 hours, the sweetened milk turns to toffee.  I was so anxious to open the can that I didn't wait for it to properly cool.  I opened it right away and as you can imagine, the heat had built up pressure in the can and upon opening, it exploded hot toffee all over my hand.  I persevered through the pain and finished making the pie, but oh man, it seriously hurt. 

This time around I let the can boil for 3 hours, turned off the stove and went to bed.  In the morning the can had cooled and I was able to open it without issue. 


Ingredients:
1 Shortbread Cookie Pie Shell
1 Can Condensed Sweetened Milk
3 Bananas
2 Cups Whipping Cream
2 tsp Vanilla
1 Tbs Sugar

Directions:
Boil the can of milk (in the can) for 3 hours.  Make sure the entire can is submerged in water the entire time.  I would highly suggest letting the can cool overnight before opening. 

Bake the pie shell at 375 for 5 minutes.  Slice the 3 bananas and arrange on the bottom of the cooked pie shell. Cover the bananas with the toffee.  Top with whipped cream and enjoy!

Whipped Cream Directions:
Whip cream until soft peaks form, add in vanilla and sugar.  Continue to whip until whip cream is thickened. 


I hope you try this recipe and enjoy it as much as I do.  I made this for my mom and sister tonight and they both seemed to enjoy it as well.  :)  This is seriously heaven in pie form in my humble opinion.
