Bananatoffee Pizza Recipes

BANANA-TOFFEE BARS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Generously grease 8-inch square pan with shortening. In medium bowl, beat butter and brown sugar with electric mixer on medium speed 1 minute or until light and fluffy. On low speed, beat in flour and salt just until moistened. Stir in pecans. Press mixture in bottom of pan.
• Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden around edges. Cool completely in pan on cooling rack, about 30 minutes.
• Spread about half of the dulce de leche over cooled crust. Top with banana slices. Spread remaining dulce de leche over bananas.
• In chilled small bowl, beat whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Spread whipped cream over top of dulce de leche; sprinkle with toffee bits. Refrigerate about 1 hour or until firm. Cut into 4 rows by 4 rows. Store covered in refrigerator.

BANANA TOFFEE PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Shape cookie dough into large circle, 12-18 inches in diameter, and bake until golden brown, approxiamately 20 minutes. Let cool completely.
• Mix cream cheese until smooth, then add brown sugar. Mix until well blended. Fold in whipped topping.
• Spread mixture over cooled cookie crust.
• Coarsely chop candy bars. Just before serving, place banana evenly over filling. Sprinkle candy over pizza. Drizzle ice cream topping over pizza, then sprinkle with almonds.
• Cut into pizza style slices. Refrigerate leftovers, if you have any.

BANANA TOFFEE FRITTERS

Steps:

• For the Batter: Sift the flour into a bowl and stir in the beaten eggs, then gradually add 2 tbsps of water and mix together into a batter. Add the salt and leave to stand for a few minutes.
• For the Fritters: Place a wok over high heat and add the peanut oil. Heat the oil to 350degreesF, or until a cube of bread dropped in turns golden brown in 15 seconds and floats to the surface.
• Peel the bananas, removing any strings from the fruit, and break each one into about 4 pieces. Dip the banana pieces one by one into the batter and then add to the hot oil. Fry for 3-4 minutes or until the pieces turn golden and float to the surface of the oil, then carefully remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• While the banana fritters are draining, heat a small wok or skillet over medium heat and add the sugar. As the sugar starts to turn to liquid, quickly add the fritters and coat well in the caramelized sugar. Sprinkle over the sesame seeds as you turn the fritters in the pan: they will become toasted as they hit the hot sugar.
• Remove the toffee fritters from the pan and dip them quickly in a bowl of iced water, then place on individual plates. Decorate with the banana slices and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
• Take care not to overheat the sugar or it will taste burned, so keep the heat on medium-low when you are making the toffee coating for the fritters.

BANANA-TOFFEE PIE

Steps:

• For crust:
• Finely grind almonds in processor. Add flour, sugar, lemon peel, cinnamon and cloves and process briefly to combine. Add butter and process using on/off turns until mixture resembles coarse meal. Beat egg and banana liqueur in small bowl to blend. Gradually add enough egg mixture to form moist clumps. Gather dough into ball; flatten to disk. Wrap dough in plastic and refrigerate 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 13-inch round. Transfer to 10-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom. Trim to fit. Freeze crust 15 minutes.
• Line pie crust with aluminum foil. Fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake 15 minutes. Remove foil and beans and bake until crust is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer pan to rack and cool completely.
• For filling:
• Stir brown sugar, butter and 1/4 cup whipping cream in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves and butter melts. Continue cooking until mixture is thick, stirring constantly, about 3 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat. Stir vanilla extract into toffee mixture.
• Toss bananas with banana liqueur in medium bowl. Arrange bananas in single layer in crust. Pour warm toffee mixture over bananas. Refrigerate pie until cool, about 1 hour. (Can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Cover and keep refrigerated.)
• Serve pie with whipped cream.

BANOFFEE (BANANA TOFFEE) PIE

Steps:

• Place unopened can of condensed milk in a large pot; cover with water. Bring to boil; reduce to a simmer. Cover pot with lid and simmer for 3 hours to make the toffee, checking periodically to ensure the can is still immersed and adding more water as needed.
• Remove can from the pot and allow to cool until safe to handle. Rinse with cold running water for 10 minutes to speed up cooling.
• Open carefully and stir toffee until smooth. Spread toffee over the bottom of the prepared graham pie crust. Chill for at least 1 hour.
• Layer sliced bananas on top of the toffee. Beat cream in a large bowl until soft peaks form. Add sugar and continue to beat until fluffy. Spread whipped cream over bananas.

BANANATOFFEE PIZZA

Steps:

• 1. Heat oven to 350. Spray a round pizza pan and place cookie dough on pan and flatten out to cover pan. Bake for about 20 mins. and golden brown. Cool crust completely.
• 2. Beat cream cheese until smooth and add brown sugar. Mix well then fold in whipped cream.
• 3. Spread over cooled cookie crust.
• 4. Coursely chop candy bars. Slice bananas and arrange over pizza right before serving. Sprinkle candy bar pieces and almonds. Drizzle caramel over top.

BANOFFEE PIE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Make the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar and salt. Stir until fully incorporated and sandy. (When you pinch a bit of it between your fingers, it should hold together.) Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Using your fingers or a flat-bottomed cup, press the mixture into the pie plate and up the sides. Make sure it is well packed. Bake until set, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 2 days.
• Spoon the dulce de leche into the pie crust and spread into an even layer. Pile in banana slices into a relatively even layer (they should overlap). Transfer the pie to the refrigerator while you make the whipped cream.
• Make the whipped cream: Using a handheld mixer or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract and instant coffee, if using, on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes. Spread the whipped cream on top of the bananas, making sure to spread the whipped cream to the edge, totally covering the bananas (this will help prevent them from browning). Chill the pie, uncovered, for 2 hours and up to overnight.
• To serve, sprinkle the pie with chocolate shavings or fresh coffee grounds, if desired. Store leftover pie in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 5 days. The whipped cream may lose some height, but the pie will be no less delicious.

EASY BANOFFEE PIE

Steps:

• Crush the digestive biscuits, either by hand using a wooden spoon, or in a food processor, until you get fine crumbs, tip into a bowl. Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted butter until fully combined. Tip the mixture into a 23cm loose bottomed fluted tart tin and cover the tin, including the sides, with the biscuit in an even layer. Push down with the back of a spoon to smooth the surface and chill for 1 hr, or overnight.
• Beat the caramel to loosen and spoon it over the bottom of the biscuit base. Spread it out evenly using the back of a spoon or palette knife. Gently push the chopped banana into the top of the caramel until the base is covered. Put in the fridge.
• Whip the cream with the icing sugar until billowy and thick. Take the pie out of the fridge and spoon the whipped cream on top of the bananas. Grate the dark chocolate over the cream, if you like, and serve.
