Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 large bananas, sliced
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until well mixed. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, cook the sweetened condensed milk, stirring constantly, for about 10-15 minutes until it thickens and turns a caramel color. Pour the caramelized condensed milk into the cooled crust, spreading it evenly. Allow it to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
- Once the caramel layer is set, arrange the sliced bananas evenly over the top of the tart.
- In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the bananas, smoothing it out with a spatula.
- Garnish with chocolate shavings or a dusting of cocoa powder. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
- For a nutty flavor, substitute half of the graham cracker crumbs with finely chopped pecans or walnuts.
- Add a layer of sliced strawberries or a drizzle of caramel sauce on top of the whipped cream for extra flavor and visual appeal.
