Banana Caramel Tart is definitely one of my all-time favorite desserts. I may be wrong, but I think it’s a completely South African dessert. It’s different from Banoffee Pie and Caramel Tart, but perhaps best explained as a combination of the two. It has the perfect balance of sweetness for my palate, and this quick and easy Banana Caramel Tart recipe always has me coming back for more! If you want a guaranteed winner for any occasion, this is the dessert for you!

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Yield: 1 23cm X 23cm Pyrex dish
Ingredients:
1 tin caramel (360g)
250ml’s whipping cream
2 Tbsp. sugar
3-4 bananas
a pack of Tennis Biscuits
Method:
Empty the tin of caramel into a mixing bowl, and add 45ml’s of the whipping cream to it. Beat with an electric mixer until it’s smooth & creamy.
Empty the remaining whipping cream into a separate mixing bowl, add the sugar, and beat until the cream becomes stiff. A good tip is to always ensure that your cream is cold before you beat it. If it isn’t, it won’t stiffen up nicely and could result in you overmixing it and making butter!
Prep your bananas by thinly slicing them, and set aside.
To layer the Banana Caramel Tart, place a thin layer of the whipped cream into the bottom of your dish to coat it entirely.
Place the Tennis Biscuits, face down, into your dish until the base is covered.
Spread a generous layer of caramel on top of the biscuits, using half of the caramel.
Place a layer of sliced banana on top of the caramel, packing tightly to cover the layer entirely.
Repeat the cream layer (using half of the remaining cream), biscuit layer, caramel layer (using the remaining caramel) and banana layer, creating a full second layer of the dessert.
To finish it off, spread the remaining cream over the top, and sprinkle with finely crushed Tennis Biscuits.
Pop it into the fridge for a couple of hours or over night to set. This gives the Tennis Biscuits a good chance to become soft, and the tart will melt in your mouth… enjoy!
