⁠Method:⁠

• Preheat the oven to 180°C or 360°F. Line the base of a 20cm tart tin with baking paper. Grease the sides with coconut oil. ⁠
• To make the base, combine all of the ingredients in a food processor. Blend until the mix comes together. Season with a pinch of sea salt.

• To make the topping, whisk together the chilled coconut cream (use only the thick cream, discard any watery liquid), vanilla essence and maple syrup. Arrange the banana slices on top of the caramel, followed by the whipped cream. ⁠
• Store in the fridge until ready to serve. Any leftovers will keep covered in the fridge for 2-3 days. ⁠
