Banana pudding pie from Sift: The Elements of Great Baking (page 248) by Nicola Lamb

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Can substitute Nilla wafers or lady fingers for the Savoiardi biscuits on p. 340.

    This wasn't terribly hard to make compared to thr other recipes in this book. It was well liked! So yummy.

    Delicious!!! A bit of a project, but most of the components can be made ahead of time which I love. I only had 9inch tart pan so I didn’t have quite enough of the crust, would do 1.5 the recipe next time, or try and find an 8inch. Made this for pi day and it was such a treat.

    I put powered freeze dried bananas in the pudding for more banana flavor! Turned out great. Doubled the chocolate cookie crust b/c I didn’t have enough but then was a little too thick.

    Absolutely phenomenal. Used the suggested Nilla wafer substitution instead of making savoiardi biscuits, as much for nostalgia as anything else. Bit of a project, but I don’t think I’ll be able to go back to any other banana pudding recipe.
