Steps:
- To make the pudding, in a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisk the sugar, flour, and salt together. Slowly whisk in the milk until combined and smooth and then stir constantly with a wooden spoon until the mixture comes to a low boil and thickens, about 7 minutes. Reduce the heat to very low.

Steps:
- 1. PUDDING: Whisk together sugar, flour, whole eggs, yolks and milk in a heavy saucepan.
- 2. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, 10-12 minutes or until it reaches the thickness of chilled pudding. It must be very thick to set up properly. Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla.
- 3. Transfer to a medium bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing the wrap directly on top of the pudding so that it doesn't get a skin on top of it. Refrigerate until completely cooled. While the pudding is chilling, prepare the crust.
- 4. CRUST: In a medium bowl, stir together crushed vanilla wafers and butter until blended. Firmly press on bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
- 5. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to a wire rack, and let cool 30 minutes or until completely cool.
- 6. TOPPING: Once both the pudding and crust are prepared and cooled, make the topping. In a medium bowl, whip cream on medium high speed until soft peaks form. Slowly add the sugar and vanilla and continue to beat to stiff peaks. Be careful not to over beat to avoid making butter!
- 7. ASSEMBLY: Arrange half of the banana slices evenly over bottom of cooled crust. Spread 1/3 of cooled pudding over bananas.
- 8. Layer pudding layer with 20 vanilla wafers. Spread 1/3 more pudding over vanilla wafers.
- 9. Add the remainder of the banana slices over pudding layer. Top with the last 1/3 of the pudding.
- 10. Top the pie with a generous layer of whipped topping! Enjoy!!!
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your pudding will be.
- Don't overmix the pudding. Overmixing can make the pudding tough.
- If you don't have a pie crust, you can use a graham cracker crust or a vanilla wafer crust.
- Be sure to chill the pudding before serving. This will help it set and make it more delicious.
- You can garnish the pie with whipped cream, chopped nuts, or fresh fruit.
Conclusion:
This homemade banana pudding pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy pudding filling, buttery crust, and sweet banana flavor, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
