We made a pumpkin caramel pie to bring for a family dinner (not pictured, strangely). Enough pie crust remained to line a shallow pizza pan, which I baked into a crust before I knew what it would become. We also had a bit of caramel leftover. After a little time considering what ingredients we had, Bailey figured we could make a decent banoffee pie. It is a beautiful accident that she had been wanting to make this after seeing it on *The Great British Bake Off*, and luckier still that we had bananas on hand.

## Recipe
This is a lazy recipe because the food was assembled ad-hoc using leftovers of unknown measurements as is the case for many kinds of pies. I use the examples of the quiche and pie to make my point: they serve as the uniting force that brings together really any ingredient in any amount that you happen to have lying around. Details unimportant.
1. Bake pie crust ~12"
2. Pour shallow layer of wet caramel
3. Toast about 35 pecans
4. Cover caramel layer with one layer of toasted pecans
5. Slice a banana into 1/4" slices
6. Cover the pecans in layer of whipped cream
7. Place the banana slices over the whipped cream
