Lotus Biscoff Banoffee Pie
A dessert perfect when you have those extra bananas lying around and tired of turning them into a banana loaf. Banoffee pie is one of the best British desserts that exists and it’s super easy. This twist on a classic banoffee pie adds a nostalgic flavour to the mix with lotus biscoff as the 'crunch' layer, smeared with Lotus biscoff spread, sliced bananas, chopped pecans, more of the spread and whipped vanilla cream onto that.
