Banana pie in a frying pan

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make a banana pie in a frying pan? First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. Take the flour of the highest grade. Eggs need large selected ones. If the eggs are small, for example, of the second category, it is better to take 4 pieces. Wash the eggs and dry them with napkins. Bananas too.

2. Step 2:

   

   Beat the eggs into a bowl. Add 125 g of sugar to them and beat with a mixer until fluffy. To make the dough fluffy, airy, it is important not to over-beat the eggs. The mass should increase in size by 3 times, lighten, and a lot of air bubbles should appear on the surface.

3. Step 3:

   

   Sift flour with baking powder and add parts to the dough. I sift all the flour at once, because I have prepared biscuit dough more than a dozen times and have already filled my hand. I advise beginners to add flour little by little and beat at the lowest speed so as not to precipitate the beaten eggs too much. You may take more or less flour than I do. Be guided by the consistency of the dough.

4. Step 4:

   

   The dough should turn out to be fluid, but a little viscous, with bubbles on the surface.

5. Step 5:

   

   Peel the bananas. You can slice it as you like. Most often, bananas for pie are cut into circles. I prefer a more interesting pie pattern, so I cut the bananas lengthwise. It is very important that bananas are not overripe, with a bright yellow skin, elastic flesh and not very sweet. If you have overripe bananas, then I advise you to reduce the amount of sugar, otherwise the pie may turn out to be sugary, and not everyone likes it.

6. Step 6:

   

   Brush the bottom and sides of the pan generously with butter. To make it easier to rub the oil in a frying pan, hold it for 10-15 minutes at room temperature. Sprinkle the bottom of the pan with the remaining sugar. This is necessary so that after turning over on top of the pie, a light crispy caramel crust is formed.

7. Step 7:

   

   Put the bananas in the pan. If you decide to stop at the same slicing as mine, then choose bananas that are not very long so that they completely fit into the pan in which you will cook the pie. The diameter of my frying pan is 28 cm.

9. Step 8:

   

   Pour the sponge dough evenly on top. It aligns itself and forms a flat surface.

10. Step 9:

    

    Put the pan on medium heat and cover with a lid. the lid here is preferably convex, so that the dough has a place to grow.

11. Step 10:

    

    Fry the pie for about 10-15 minutes. It is better not to open the lid at all for the first 5-7 minutes. And then periodically hold a spatula between the dough and the walls of the pan so that the dough does not stick. The exact time depends on your frying pan and the intensity of the fire. Therefore, periodically check if the pie is burnt from the bottom.

12. Step 11:

    

    When the dough is well gripped on top, use two spatulas to gently turn the pie over so that the bananas are on top.

13. Step 12:

    

    Cover the pan again with a lid and continue cooking the pie for about 5-7 minutes.

14. Step 13:

    

    Put the finished banana pie on a platter and cut into pieces. Bon appetit!
