This Banoffee Ice Cream Sundae is a delightfully easy and quick way to enjoy all the banoffee flavours without the trouble of making a whole pie. It’s an individual serving and takes only a couple minutes to throw together. Perfect for when you have a sweet tooth craving but don’t want a whole pie!
To make this ice cream sundae, we will need a few different ingredients;
For the salted caramel ice cream, you can make your own if you wish. You can take a peek at my recipe for a No Churn Salted Dulce De Leche Ice Cream if you wish. You can buy this, of course, if you don’t have the inclination to make your own. Some delicious examples of this could be;
To make the whipped cream, simply add the cream and icing sugar into a mixing bowl. Whisk, using a hand whisk or electric whisk, until the cream is thick and hold it’s shape. You can skip this step by buying already whipped cream either in a tub or in a squirty bottle.

This is a little self explanatory, just fresh banana sliced up. I prefer to choose a banana that is just about ripe so the texture is still a little firm and not mushy. However, if you prefer very ripe bananas that are a little softer, go on ahead. This banoffee ice cream sundae can be made with your spin on it!
When it comes to a traditional banoffee, the typical biscuit choice is McVities Digestives. If you prefer a sweeter crumb, you could choose McVities Rich Tea Biscuits. Ultimately, you can choose whatever your favourite biscuit it, or whatever you have in the kitchen! To crush the biscuits, add them to a food processor and pulse until you create crumbs. Alternatively, if you don’t have a food processor or don’t want to have to wash it, you can place your biscuits into a ziploc bag and bash it with a rolling pin until you get crumbs.
Banoffee refers to a flavour pairing of banana and toffee. Caramel is often used in place or as well as the toffee. It is a classic British tart filling.
A traditional banoffee tart consists of a crushed digestive base that is mixed with melted butter. There is usually a thick layer of caramel, followed by sliced bananas and whipped cream.
An ice cream sundae is typically a dessert in a dessert glass or bowl containing ice cream, whipped cream, some kind of sweet sauce and sometimes fruit.
You absolutely can! Just ensure that you buy vegan ice cream, vegan whipped cream, vegan caramel and ensure the biscuits you have are also vegan.
You definitely can! Make sure you make or buy gluten free biscuits to keep it gluten free.
