Here’s everything you will need for Natasha Lycia Ora Bannan’s delicious Banana Streusel Pie Recipe:

• 1 pastry shell (unbaked)
• ¼ cup brown sugar
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ½ cup pineapple juice
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 5 to 6 ripe bananas

What really makes this pie feel like fall is the scrumptious streusel on top! For the streusel topping of Natasha’s baked banana pie, you will need:

• ½ cup flour
• ½ cup brown sugar
• ½ cup nuts of your choice
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ cup butter

Directions

Step 1: Bake your pastry shell at 450 for 10 minutes.  Before placing the pastry shell into the oven, seal the top with foil.

Step 2: Combine brown sugar and cinnamon in a pan over medium heat.  Bring to a boil and then add in pineapple juice and lemon juice.  Reduce heat to low and cook until thickened, stirring regularly.  

Step 3: Remove thickened syrup from the stovetop and fold in bananas.  Then pour all ingredients into the prepared pastry shell.

Step 4: Prepare the streusel topping in a separate bowl by combining the brown sugar, nuts, butter and cinnamon.  Sprinkle streusel over the banana pie. 

Step 5: Cover edges of pie with foil and then place in the oven to cook for 40 minutes at 375.
