Pocket Banana Pie

Pocket Banana Pie

Overview

Pie is a joyful dessert. It was originally a food that originated in eastern Europe, but now it can be called a typical American food. Pies come in all different shapes, sizes and flavors. The banana pie we are making today is the most common rectangular pocket style. I believe everyone has eaten this kind of pie in fast food restaurants. Bananas are an excellent partner for pie. They don’t need to be processed in any other way. They are perfect alone as pie filling. As it bakes, the rich aroma wafts out, making your mouth water. Reference serving size: two.
