Notes
MEASUREMENTS:
Whilst I do provide the US cup measurements for the recipe, I always recommend using a kitchen weighing scale and using the weighted measurements instead. This will result in a more accurate process and your cake will come out perfectly.
TIPS:
Banana Ripeness: Choose ripe bananas with brown speckles for the best natural sweetness and flavour.
Caramel Filling: If your nut butter and banana mixture isn't as smooth as you'd like, you can gently heat it in the microwave for a few seconds or on the stovetop to make it easier to spread.
Muffin Tray: Using a silicone muffin tray can make it easier to remove the mini pies without damaging them.
Even Crusts: When pressing the crust mixture into the muffin holes, ensure it's evenly distributed and firmly packed to create a stable base.
Toppings Variation: Get creative with toppings. Try different types of chocolate, chopped nuts, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for added flavour.
Dairy-Free Options: For a vegan version, use dairy-free yoghurt. Almond, coconut, or soy yoghurt are great options.
Make Ahead: You can prepare the crusts in advance and assemble the pies just before serving to maintain the crispness of the crust.
