In a medium saucepan, whisk sugar, flour, and salt together. Add the egg yolks and egg and whisk until smooth. Whisk in the milk and the heavy cream.

Spread a thin layer of the pudding in an 8-inch square pan. Arrange a layer of vanilla wafers on top of the pudding. Arrange a layer of banana slices over the wafers. Spread half of the remaining pudding over the bananas and continue layering wafers, bananas, and pudding.
