There are flavor combinations that never fail us. Chocolate and peanut butter, apple and cinnamon, almond and egg cream… As enjoyable as it is to try new things, these familiar tastes have something comforting about them that can’t be replaced.
Banoffee is one of those matches – you can’t go wrong with banana and caramel.This banoffee pie recipe is quite straightforward and needs only 6 ingredients. It is a classic version, quick and easy, but it never disappoints. I hope you enjoy it!
