Ingredients

230g fresh dessert pastry flan case 3 medium bananans ½ lemon 450g jar banoffi toffee 142ml double cream 1 chocolate flake

Method

Preheat the oven to gas 6/200C. Line the flan case with greaseproof paper. Cover with baking beans or uncooked rice. Bake at gas mark 6/200C for 15 -18 minutes in hot oven until golden brown. Remove the baking beans and greaseproof paper. Allow to cool. Slice bananas and squeeze lemon juice over them, toss to ensure they are coated. Place in the base of the flan case. Using a spatula spread the banofee toffee over the bananas. Whip the cream until it forms soft peaks and spread over the toffee. Crumble the flake and spread over cream. Chill until required. Cook's Tips Bannoffe Toffee is sold in most supermarkets - it may be beside the jams or beside baking ingredients. If you can't find any, place an unopened 400g can of condensed milk in a pot of water, bring to the boil for three hours taking care not to let the pan boil dry. Allow the can to cool completely, open and spread over bananas as described. PER SERVING 740Kcal, fat 42.5g, saturated fat 16.7g, salt 1.1g, carbohydrate 88.9g, sugar 54.4g, fibre 1.3g
