How to Make Banana And Coconut Tart

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F).
  2. Place a pre-made pastry crust into a greased 9-inch pie dish, or line a dish with puff pastry.
  3. Blind bake the crust for 15 minutes. This prevents a soggy bottom.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup shredded coconut, ½ cup granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Heat 1 cup of milk in a saucepan until boiling. Gradually whisk the hot milk into the egg mixture until smooth.
  6. Return the mixture to the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly (about 2-3 minutes). Do not boil.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of dark rum (optional).
  8. Pour the custard into the pre-baked pastry shell.
  9. Arrange sliced bananas (2-3 ripe bananas, sliced) over the top of the custard.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the custard is set and the bananas are lightly browned.
  11. Let cool slightly before sprinkling with powdered sugar and serving. For an extra flair, consider flambéing with an additional tablespoon of rum (carefully!) at the table.
  12. Enjoy your tropical escape!
