Banana + Toffee = Banoffee. Banana + toffee whey filling + chocolate protein pie crust + cashew banana toffee whipped cream = Protein Banoffee Pie!
I have to admit that when I received a reader request for Protein Banoffee Pie recently, I googled banoffee pie for more info. It’s not a dessert I had ever tasted. And the more I read, the more I thought, “This is why I love my readers!” Banana, toffee, and chocolate. Heaven!
I had a friend in town from California the weekend I made this pie, and she hadn’t ever heard of it either. I brought it to Central Park for our picnic before spin class, and she quickly became a fan!
You’ll notice I used a little carob powder in the pie filling, and that was intentional. Carob gives the caramel, toffee type of flavor we’re looking for here. Paired with the True Athlete creamy vanilla whey protein, the filling is amazing! And with the bananas, chocolate pie crust, and sweet banana whipped cream, this pie is such an indulgent treat!
If you love banana and whipped cream desserts, give this Protein Banoffee Pie a try! You’ll thank me. I promise. ;)
And let’s all thank Cheryl for the idea!

The carob powder gives the caramel/toffee flavor, and shouldn't be replaced by cocoa.
The agar powder helps the filling set.
And almond butter can be made by processing almonds in a food processor.
