Banoffee pie

Banoffee pie is an English dessert pie made from bananas, cream, and a thick caramel sauce (made from boiled condensed milk, or dulce de leche), combined either on a buttery biscuit base or one made from crumbled biscuits and butter. Some versions of the recipe also include chocolate, coffee, or both.

  • 4 large egg whites at room temperature.

Method

  1. Sieve flour and cornflour add to mixing bowl.
