Instructions

1
Combine 1.5 cups of milk, half the sugar, vanilla bean paste, and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
2
In a blender, combine remaining milk and sugar, eggs, egg yolks, corn starch and flour. Blend on medium for 30 seconds. Set aside.
3
Once milk and sugar mixture has begun to simmer, remove from heat. Turn blender on low speed, and carefully pour 1/2 of the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture. Blend on low speed for 20 to 30 seconds. DO NOT COVER TIGHTLY!
4
Return mixture to saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, whisking continuously to avoid lumps or scorching. When pudding begins to thicken rapidly, quickly turn off heat and whisk in cold butter.
5
Transfer to a bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap or cut parchment to the top to prevent a skin from forming and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
6
To assemble, place a layer of vanilla wafers on the bottom of a serving dish. Add a layer of sliced bananas then pipe in a layer of cooled pastry cream.
7
Repeat layering all 3 ingredients until all the pastry cream and bananas have been used (approximately 2 layers for an 8x8 or 8 inch diameter trifle bowl).
8
Before serving, combine chilled heavy cream and powdered sugar in a chilled mixing bowl. Whip on high speed until stiff peaks form. Spoon over pudding then smooth with a spatula and dust with vanilla wafer crumbs.
