  1. Get the crust ready:
    Set the oven’s temperature to 175\u00b0C (350\u00b0F).
    In a bowl, thoroughly mix the melted butter, sugar, and graham cracker crumbs.
    Line a cupcake pan with paper liners and press the mixture into the sides and bottom of the pan.
    Bake until gently golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Allow to cool fully.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Prepare the Filling: Whisk together the cornstarch, sugar, and mashed bananas in a medium saucepan.
    Add milk gradually and stir until smooth.
    Stir continuously while cooking over medium heat until the sauce thickens, which should take 5 to 7 minutes.
    Whisk the yolks of the eggs in a different basin. Reintroduce the egg mixture into the saucepan after tempering it with a few tablespoons of the hot banana mixture.
    After two more minutes of cooking, turn off the heat and mix in the vanilla essence.
    Before spooning the mixture into the prepared crusts, allow it to cool slightly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Whip the Cream: Beat powdered sugar and heavy cream in a mixing dish until stiff peaks form.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Put the mini pies together by spooning or piping the whipped cream over the chilled banana filling.
    Add banana slices on top, and for added sweetness, sprinkle with honey or caramel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Chill and Serve: To set, place in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
    Enjoy cold!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
