For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of orange liqueur or a pinch of ground nutmeg to the whipped cream.
To prevent the bananas from browning, toss them gently with a squeeze of lemon juice before adding them to the salad.
For a non-dairy version, substitute the heavy cream with coconut cream that has been chilled overnight. Only use the solid part at the top of the can.
This salad is best served chilled. Prepare it a few hours in advance to allow the flavors to meld and the textures to harmonize.
You can easily customize this recipe by adding other fruits like strawberries, blueberries, or mandarin oranges, based on what you have available.
