Directions:
Sift sugar, flour, and salt into a large mixing bowl. With a large spoon, beat in the egg yolks one at a time. Heat milk and 2 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan until the butter melts and small bubbles form around the edges. Slowly, pour milk into the mixing bowl, stirring constantly with a whisk. Add the vanilla and rum and return the mixture to the saucepan. Bring almost to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring until thickened to a smooth, heavy custard. Let cool to lukewarm. Meanwhile beat ½ cup of the cream until firm peaks form. With a rubber spatula, gently but thoroughly fold it into the custard. Spread ¼ inch of custard on the bottom of the pie shell and arrange a layer of bananas on top of it. Continue alternating layers of the custard and bananas, ending with a layer of bananas. Beat remain cream until stiff. Spread on top of the pie. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
