Questions about Banana cream pie
How do you stop the bananas going brown in banana cream pie?
Use just-ripe bananas and slice them shortly before assembling the pie. Cover the slices completely with thick, cooled custard; the barrier slows browning, though the pie is best within a day for the freshest-looking fruit.
Does banana cream pie need to be refrigerated?
Yes. Because its filling contains custard, refrigerate the pie within two hours of serving and keep it covered; eat it within three to four days.
Can you freeze banana cream pie?
It is best not to: thawed custard can turn watery or grainy, and the banana slices soften and darken. Freeze the baked pastry case separately, then fill it with fresh custard and bananas.
How do you keep the pastry crust crisp under banana cream pie filling?
Blind-bake the pastry case until fully golden, then let it cool completely before filling. A thin layer of melted chocolate brushed over the base can also help keep custard from soaking in.
What is the difference between banana cream pie and banoffee pie?
Banana cream pie has a pastry case filled with banana and custard or pudding, often topped with whipped cream. Banoffee pie pairs banana with toffee or caramel, usually on a biscuit base.
What can you use instead of banana in banana cream pie?
For a similar creamy filling, layer sliced strawberries or ripe peaches with the custard, adding them just before serving so they do not release too much juice. It will no longer have the classic banana flavour.
What goes well with banana cream pie?
Serve it chilled with lightly whipped cream, or add a little grated dark chocolate or toasted coconut on top. Coffee is a good accompaniment to the sweet custard and ripe banana.
Can you make banana cream pie ahead of time?
Bake the pastry case and make the custard a day ahead, keeping both covered and chilled separately. Assemble with freshly sliced bananas a few hours before serving, then add whipped cream shortly before it reaches the table.
