Prepare the Crust:
In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until well combined.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a muffin tin to form mini pie crusts.
Refrigerate the crusts for at least 1 hour to set.
Make the Banana Pudding:

Whip the Cream:
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
Combine and Assemble:
Fold half of the whipped cream into the chilled banana pudding mixture for a lighter texture.
Spoon the banana pudding mixture into the prepared and chilled pie crusts.
Top and Garnish:
Top each mini pie with a dollop of the remaining whipped cream.
Garnish with fresh banana slices and a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness.
