Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
• 4 medium bananas, sliced
• 0.5 cup butter, melted
• 1.5 cups whipping cream

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Make the dulce de leche: Place the unopened condensed milk can in a saucepan and add water until it comes halfway up the can. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 3 hours, adding more water as necessary. Remove from the heat and let cool, 1 to 2 hours.

Step 3

Make the pie: Stir graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a mixing bowl until well blended. Press crumb mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie plate.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove pie crust from the oven and cool on a wire rack, about 10 minutes.

Step 5

Open dulce de leche can and pour 1/2 of it (about 3/4 cup) over pie crust. Arrange 1/2 of the bananas in a single layer over dulce de leche. Repeat dulce de leche and banana layers once more.

Step 6

Beat cream in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add sugar and vanilla; continue beating until stiff peaks form.

Step 7

Spoon whipped cream over bananas. Chill pie for at least 1 hour before serving.
