Transfer the cookie crumbs into a bowl with 7 tbsp salted melted butter.
Stir everything together until the butter is fully absorbed, then transfer it to a pie plate.
Push it evenly down to the bottom as well as the sides.
Put it in the preheated 350 degrees F oven and bake for 13 minutes.
While waiting, go ahead and put together the pie filling.
Whisk together to combine.
Continue whisking until combined, then turn the stove to medium heat.
Whisk continuously while the mixture thickens.
Once the mixture starts to bubble, whisk continuously for one minute, then remove it from the heat.
Now, add 3 tbsp of butter that is cut into pieces.
Whisk until the butter is fully combined, then stir in 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract.
Cover it with plastic wrap, touching the surface, to avoid skin forming.
Let the filling cool for 20 to 30 minutes.
This will prevent them from turning brown.
Now, its time to assemble the pie.
Pour half of the filling into your prepared crust.
Smooth it out evenly, then put the sliced bananas on top.
Finally, pour the rest of the filling over the bananas, and smooth it out.
Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly into the surface of the top of the banana cream pie.
Put it in the fridge and let it chill overnight.
Before serving, top it off with homemade whipped cream.
