This classic English dessert is a rich combination of caramel, bananas and whipped cream – it’s the famous Banoffee pie. I’ve used a combination of chocolate chip protein cookies, ground almonds and oats, bound with egg white and briefly baked to form the buttery biscuit base. The filling is a delicious combination of blitzed dates and our salted caramel protein cream to make an easy replacement for condensed milk caramel. Add sliced bananas on top, followed by a combination of yogurt whipped cream and vanilla protein powder for a sweet & light topping.

Preparation

  • 1

    Preheat the oven to 180C (350F).

  • 2

    Blitz the protein cookies and oats until broken down into a fine crumb. Add the almonds and egg white and blitz so that it comes together. Press the mixture into a 6-inch, loose-bottomed tart tin over the base and up the sides, into an even layer. Bake for 7-10 minutes until starting to turn golden at the edges.

  • 3

    Cover the pitted dates with boiling water and set aside to soak for 10 minutes to soften them. Drain and them blitz with the protein cream and water to get a smooth caramel. Spread this into the baked tart case to make an even layer. Top with the sliced bananas.

  • 4

    Whip the cream in a medium bowl until you get soft peaks then mix in the yogurt and protein powder until smooth and light. Spread this over the bananas in the tart tin then sprinkle with the grated chocolate, if using.
