How to Make Banana Crunch Pie
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a medium bowl, gently combine 4 ripe bananas, mashed, with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Let stand for 15 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, and 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts. Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg. Add this spice mixture to the mashed bananas and stir to combine.
- Carefully pour the banana mixture into a 9-inch refrigerated pie crust. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the banana filling.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
