Ingredients

Servings: 12
  • 2 fresh eggs (Gr. M)
  • 200 g + some flour
  • 50 g + 75 g + 100 g sugar
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 120 g cold + some butter
  • 3 TABLESPOONS Caramel cream (alternatively caramel spread from the jar)
  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 400 g Schmand
  • 7-10 Tbsp Cling film
  • baking paper
  • 7-10 Tbsp Pulses
  • 7-10 Tbsp Piping bag with perforated nozzle

Directions

  1. 1

    Separate the eggs and chill the egg white. Quickly knead 200 g flour, egg yolk, 50 g sugar, 1 pinch of salt and 120 g butter in pieces to make the shortcrust pastry. Wrap in foil and chill for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/circulating air: 175 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Grease the tart mould with lifting base (24 cm Ø). Roll out the dough on a floured sheet of baking paper until round (approx. 28 cm Ø).

  3. 3

    Turn the paper into the mould. Carefully peel off the paper, press the dough gently at the bottom and sides. Prick several times with a fork. Cover with baking paper and place pulses on top. Bake in the hot oven on the lower shelf for about 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Take out, remove pulses and paper. Continue baking for about 5 minutes. Remove and let cool on a cake rack.

  5. 5

    Spread the tart base with caramel cream. Peel and slice the bananas and spread them on the tart. Whip the sour cream and 75 g sugar, spread on the bananas and smooth it down. Chill for about 2 hours.

  6. 6

    Shortly before serving, beat the egg whites until very stiff and finally add 100 g of sugar. Continue beating for 1-2 minutes. Pour the egg whites into a piping bag with a perforated spout and squirt small tuffs onto the sour cream.

  7. 7

    Carefully flame off briefly with a kitchen gas burner.
