Banana Pie With Peanut Whipped Cream
- 100 grams sugar
- 235 grams flour
- salt
- 115 grams butter cold and diced
- 1 lime
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
- salt
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 6 bananas ripe but firm and sliced into rounds
- 3 tablespoons orange juice
- 85 grams cream cheese at room temperature
- 1/2 cup superfine sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup peanut butter
- 2/3 cup heavy cream cold
- peanuts for garnish
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
- Mix the sugar, flour, and a pinch of salt in a bowl.
- Add the butter, and using two knives, cut the pieces into smaller lumps (roughly the size of peas). Add the lime zest, egg, and egg yolk and mix using a fork. Shape the dough into one piece using your hands.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours.
- Stretch the dough enough to cover the pie mold. Place it in the mold and add weight (rice or beans).
- Bake for 15 minutes, remove the weight, and bake until light golden brown.
- Remove and cool completely.
- In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream, milk, and half of the sugar. When the milk starts boiling, turn the heat off.
- Separately, mix the rest of the sugar with the cornstarch, a pinch of salt, and the egg yolks. Add a splash of the hot milk, stirring while pouring it in.
- Pour this mixture into the milk. Turn the heat on to medium-low.
- When it boils, count 40 seconds, then lower the heat and continue cooking.
- Remove from heat and pour into another bowl. Add the vanilla and butter. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it cool completely.
- Mix the banana slices and the orange juice to keep them from darkening.
- To assemble the pie, pour a layer of pastry cream over the pie crust and then add a layer of banana slices. Repeat this process until there is no more pastry cream. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Mix the cream cheese with the superfine sugar until creamy and lump-free. Add the vanilla and the peanut butter.
- Separately, whip the cream to soft peaks using an electric mixer. Carefully add to the cream cheese and peanut butter.
- Pour over the pastry cream and refrigerate for 2 hours before serving.
