400g dulce de leche (1 and 1/2 cups)

4 ripe bananas

1 cup whipped cream

1 teaspoon cinnamon for topping

instructions:

1. in a medium bowl, stir together crumbs, butter melted and the cinnamon until combined and moistened.

2. preheat oven to 350°F (180°C)

3. using your fingers, press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan and up the sides.(bake the crust for 20 minutes. cool before filling)

4. slice bananas thinly

5. spread dulce de leche on top of the crust and smooth the top

6. lay the bananas over the dulce de leche in one even layer.

Did you know there is only one lake in the Lake District? Although there are 16 named bodies of water, only one- Bassenthwaite Lake- qualifies as a Lake. A tidbit for your next pub quiz 😊
