Banoffee Cake
Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine flour and sugar, then add melted butter and beaten eggs. Mix until smooth and pour into a greased round cake pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, prepare the caramelized bananas. Slice the bananas into ¼-inch thick rounds. In a saucepan over low heat, pour the sweetened condensed milk and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and turns golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add banana slices to the pan and cook until lightly browned and caramelized, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form using an electric mixer. This takes about 3-4 minutes. Keep refrigerated until ready to assemble.1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- Once the cake is cooled, carefully slice it horizontally into two even layers. Spread the caramelized banana slices evenly over the bottom layer. Place the second cake layer on top.1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- Spread a generous layer of whipped cream over the top of the assembled cake. Decorate with additional caramelized banana slices or chocolate shavings if desired. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to set the layers.1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
