Filling
· 1 x 397g can condensed milk

  3. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes, or place in the freezer for 10 minutes to set.
  4. To make the caramel, add the condensed milk to a saucepan and cook over a medium–low heat, stirring continuously until it thickens and turns a rich golden colour.
  5. Remove from the heat and leave to cool for about 10 minutes.
  6. Pour the caramel over the chilled base and spread it evenly.
  7. Sprinkle with a little sea salt, then layer over the sliced bananas.
