THat looks lovely! wonderful job on the pie.. I’m sure everyone enjoyed it!
Gorgeous! Love the way the topping looks
I like that you left out the spices in the pie. I also thought that they were very autumn-ish and I wasn't grooving on that for a springtime pie. I think that it looks so wonderful & sophisticated in the tart form!
Um, is there any way for your presentation to be any more PERFECT?! That is gorgeous! Hahah the flavors were very autumn-y, but they were excellent! When the fall rolls around, you should add the nutmeg and cinnamon!
Beautiful pie. I love it!
Oh, your tart looks perfect! My crust was a little thick, but it was the first time I used the little pans. I thought about a nilla wafer crust, too. I’m sure it would be great!
Your tart looks lovely! The whipped cream on top is absolutely beautiful!
Oh…you fufu’d it up so pretty.
Looks fabulous!
Looks good as a tart and I love how your swirled on the whipped cream!

Oh my goodness, it looks beautiful! Great job!
Love…love your piping on the pie.
Am thinking I should use my tart pan more then I do as it makes a better looking pie!
This looks devine. I am loving all the different interpretations of this recipe. And yours works so well in the tart shell.
Thank you for the sweet compliment! This pie looks AMAZING! I think I might leave out the nutmeg next time…a little too “Christmasy” for me, but still delish! Beautiful pictures! Thanks for baking with me this week!

Oh I suck at crimping too and I think due to your beautiful pie, I have found a solution! Beautiful!
I am awful at crimping! I’m always amazed at creative types that can make their topping/icing/decorating look so professional.
Beautiful! Yours looks so fresh and light!
Love it. Beautiful photos!
Your pie looks just amazing. I did go with a Nilla wafer crust. I highly recommend it.
Wow, I love what you did with it! It looks gorgeous with the tart crust!
Your pie is beautiful–I love the whipped topping!!
Best looking banana cream pie I’ve seen all day (or no, evening! LOL)
Very, very nice and totaly fancy!
I’m good at crimping pie crusts, but Dorie’s crust isn’t, ha ha. It always melts to mush in the oven. I find that shortening crusts hold the crimp better but then you’re cooking with shortening. Oh well, I think you were brilliant to circumvent the entire problem and make a stunning tart. I hope it compared favorably to the home town favorites!

That pie is picture-perfect!! Great job!
Your pie looks delicious! I’m so glad you loved it. I think using the tart pan was an awesome idea!! (And yay for no curdling!)
How beautiful! I think I would enjoy a more traditional banana cream pie, too. I love your idea of making a pie in a tart pan – must try it!
Pie looks great!!! I tried to decorate my crust to no avail. Ah, well. We continue on.
This looks beautiful! I love how you gave it more of a “spring” vibe. Love it as a tart, too. Perfect!
Wow, that’s one of the most gorgeous pies I’ve seen this week! Great job adapting the recipe to your tastes.
Mmmm, I’ll bet your pie was better than the pie shop’s. It looks so pretty, well done!
LOVE the tart pan idea!
now that im seeing more and people do it, im starting to think i will on my next pie, cuz i really am "crimping impaired"
great job!

Great photo! And, one of my favorite pies.
Beautiful whipped cream florets! Looks delicious – you have my mouth watering over here!
I lvoe your big whipped cream swirls!
Next time I’m leaving out the spices too, I wasn’t big on them.
That pie looks so good!
