Recipe: Banoffee Bites

Sorted

Banoffee pie is a firm favourite around the world, but the flavour combination works in loads of different ways. We've stuck banana and toffee into filo parcels that you could almost mistake for wontons! They're a cool little snack or a great dessert if people just want to pick at the end of a meal.

Ingredients

1 pinch cinnamon
1 shot rum
1 tin condensed milk
1 handful almond flakes
50 g butter
150 ml double cream
4 sheets filo pastry
2 bananas

Step 1

Boil The Condensed Milk

Boil a saucepan of water and add the unopened tin of condensed milk so that it is submerged. Simmer for 4 hours, until the milk has turned to caramel.

Step 2

Fry The Bananas

Dice the bananas into small cubes. Heat a knob of butter to a pan, add the bananas and cinnamon, then fry for a minute. Splash in the rum and cook further until the rum has gone.

Step 3

Coat Bananas With Caramel

Open the tin of caramel and pour enough into the bananas to just coat.

Step 4

Toast The Almonds

Toast the almond flakes in a dry frying pan then roughly chop.

Step 5

Lay Out The Pastry

Lay out the filo pastry and cut out 10cm x 10cm squares. Spoon a tablespoon of the banana mixture into the middle of each square and scatter over some of the flaked almonds.
