Based on and Inspired by Elana’s Pantry Banana Cream Pie.
Decadent. Delightful. Delicious.
No, I’m not talking about Brad Pitt in his starring role as Achilles in the EPIC chick-flick eye-candy film Troy…
I’m talking about my recently created and devoured banana cream tart. It was amazing. Like, I literally took a bite and said “this is amazing.”
It’s also incredibly simple to make and requires no fancy ingredients. It does, however, require a bit of patience for the layers to set. But I know you can handle the wait. I just know you can!
