 The James Beard Foundation: Eat These Words Archive "B"
In an attempt to create an easy, foolproof toffee dessert, chef Ian Dowding boiled condensed milk for a few hours to make a soft toffee, which he poured into a shortbread crust and topped with a layer of bananas and coffee-laced whipped cream.
The Hungry Monk's owner, Nigel Mackenzie, came up with the name, which is a portmanteau made up of its two main ingredients-banana and toffee-and can also be spelled banoffee, banoffie, or bannofy.
It could be a corruption of ragoût or of barbecue, or it may derive from a bulgur porridge that was eaten by sailors in the 17th century.
