Banana Cream Pie

July 3rd, 2012

I’ve made a lot of desserts over the years, but this banana cream pie is my hands down favorite. It’s a combination of several recipe inspirations (like David Leibovitz’s chocolate cookie crust) but it’s simply a rich vanilla custard, layered with ripe bananas. I got a little experimental and brûléed the top layer of fruit, before topping it off with a rum-infused whipped cream and chocolate shavings. It’s ridiculously indulgent, but the results are beyond delicious.

    Oh how Oreo recipes are so darn good! There’s nothing those biscuits cant be used for it seems…

    I’ve just made white chocolate dipped oreos sprinkled with funfetti! So delicious and such a good addition to the table!

    ohmyyumcity! I can see how this is your favorite. I love the crust because the classic butter/pie crust can get boring, and bananas are my favorite fruit! And, last but not least, rum infused whipped topping with chocolate… oh a pie made in heaven.
