Who doesn't love pie? It can come in all shapes and sizes, bake or no bake, sweet or savoury, the list can go on and on. Here, two classic desserts collide to form this new favourite.
"One taste of a creamy banana split can take us back to our childhoods in a 'split' second. This pie has almost all the elements of a classic banana split – a crunchy base, creamy middle layer, bananas, pineapple, and strawberries with a creamy coconut whipped topping and tangy mango drizzled walnuts." Tenille Lafontaine, Feisty, Frugal and Fabulous.
