BANANAS FOSTER TART
I love this! This recipe was a $2,000.00 winner in the 38th Pillsbury Bake-Off in 1998. I wasn't sure how my co-workers would like it but it was gone before 11am when I took it to work. Such a great blend of flavors. Of course you could use your own favorite pie crust recipe if you've got a knack with crust. I've included the 1/2 hour cooling time in the prep time.
