In a large saucepan combine sugar, cornstarch and salt. Mix well, then stir in milk and egg yolks and place on stovetop.

Slice 1 banana and spread into bottom of pre-baked pie shell. Pour half of custard (cooled 5-10 minutes) over the banana. Cover with second sliced banana and spread remaining custard over banana layer. Cool the pie completely.
For the Homemade Whipped Cream: In a refrigerated glass or metal mixing bowl, whisk (preferably with a hand mixer with the whisk attachment or stand mixer) the heavy cream on low speed 1 minute, add the sugar and the vanilla and whisk until medium peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes. Spread whipped cream over pie, covering completely. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
