These mini banoffee tarts only have five ingredients and are super quick and easy to make.
You can't beat a banoffee tart and these mini ones are so delicious. I made mine with sweet shortcrust pastry, canned caramel, chocolate, bananas and whipped cream.
You can make these tarts even quicker by using pre-made tart cases, then it is just a matter of assembling all of the ingredients.
If you are making the pastry tart shells at home, heat the caramel with the chocolate pieces in the oven so that they become gooey and delicious.
Serve with whipped cream on top and then scatter over some dark chocolate shavings or crumble a Flake chocolate bar over the top.
This recipe also works very well with strawberries instead of bananas on top of the caramel in the tart.

Mini Banoffee Tarts
These mini banoffee tarts only have five ingredients and are super quick and easy to make.
Ingredients
- 2 sheets of sweet short pastry or 12 pre-made mini tart cases
- 1 can caramel condensed milk
- 12 squares of chocolate or 1 flake bar
- 2 bananas, thinly sliced
- 250ml cream, whipped
- Extra chocolate or flake bar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C fanbake. Prepare a muffin tin with lots of cooking spray or line each hole with baking paper, the pastry cases can be very hard to get out once cooked.
- Cut pastry to fit then line each hole and blind bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven and add one large tablespoon of caramel and 1 square of chocolate in each pastry case. Bake for 5 minutes until melted and pastry is cooked through.
- Once cooled remove tarts from tray, arrange sliced banana on top then a dollop of whipped cream. Scatter with chocolate shards or flake.
Notes
- This recipe also works well with sliced strawberries.
- You can use pre-made pastry cases and skip the baking part.
- You could also used whipped cream in a can but be aware it will not hold its shape for as long as home-whipped cream. So add it just before serving.

If using pre made cases do I still need to put them in the oven for the second stage to melt the chocolate in the case or can I melt the chocolate and pour directly into the case?
VJ cooks says
You could do that! Or line the tin with the pre made cases, add the caramel and chocolate and cook for 5 - 10 minutes until the chocolate has melted.
Karen Sisarich says
I have made these using ginger nuts as the cases by putting into a muffin pan and softening in the oven and pushing down in the middle to make cases before cooling and adding rest of ingredients. Yumm !!

Oh wow what a great idea!
