Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

• 1 sheet of pre-made pie crust
• 2 ripe bananas, sliced
• 1/4 cup Nutella
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
• Pinch of salt

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat, then add the sliced bananas and brown sugar.
3. Cook the bananas for about 3-4 minutes until caramelized, gently flipping them to avoid breaking.
4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract; set aside to cool slightly.
5. Roll out the pie crust on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, creating a circle about 12 inches in diameter.
6. Spread Nutella evenly over the center of the pie crust, leaving a 2-inch border around the edge.
7. Layer the caramelized bananas on top of the Nutella in a circular pattern.
8. Fold the edges of the pie crust over the bananas, pleating as necessary to create a rustic look.
9. Brush the crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle a pinch of salt over it.
10. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy.
11. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm!

Notes

Tip: Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat!

For an extra flavor boost, sprinkle a bit of cinnamon over the bananas as they caramelize. If you don’t have Nutella, any chocolate hazelnut spread will work just fine. You can also experiment by adding chopped nuts to the filling for added texture and flavor.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat in the oven for a few minutes to regain that crispy crust before serving.
