Ingredients:

  • 1, 9- inch (23 cm) All-Butter Pie Crust, blind baked and cooled
  • 2 medium ripe bananas (198 g total)
  • 1 batch Lactose-Free Pastry Cream, freshly made and warm
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) heavy cream; use lactose-free if possible but not necessary
  • 1 teaspoon confectioners’ sugar or sugar
  • A few drops of vanilla extract

Preparation:

  1. Thinly slice one of the peeled bananas and scatter the slices evenly all over the bottom of the baked and cooled pie crust.
  2. Pour about half of the Lactose-Free Pastry Cream (you can do this by eye) over the bananas in the crust, covering completely. Slice the second banana thinly and arrange all over the pastry cream, then top with remaining pastry cream. Chill the pie until firm, at least 2 hours.
  3. Whip the cream with sugar of choice, adding a few drops of vanilla extract, just until soft peaks form. I like to keep this pie casual looking and just dollop the whipped cream onto the pie with a spoon. Try one dollop in the middle and then 10 dollops all around the outer edge. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 day, however the various textures will suffer the longer it sits.

Notes:

Tip

  • Ripe bananas might be higher in FODMAP content than firm, unripe bananas but they are also what you need for maximum banana flavor in recipes. Simply follow our guidance and your pie will still be low FODMAP. I like to freeze peeled ripe bananas in zip-top bags so that I always have them on hand for baking and smoothies.
