Banoffee pie is a dessert for the God’s; deliciously sweet, crumbly, liquidy, plus it has fruit in it, so it’s healthy (banana is half of the word banoffee, okay). It’s also a dessert that doesn’t take too much time, perfect for dinner parties with parents or when trying to impress your best pals.
Our wonderful friend and accomplished 21 year old chef Ashleigh Jarvis told us earlier this week about her love for banoffee pie, cementing her in our hearts forever. We managed to convince Ashleigh to share her recipe and allow you to roll up your sleeves and get baking.
