Hi Jen,
The Banana/Nilla Wafer thingy is a variant of the American 'Banana Cream
Pie'. Banana Cream pie is a baked bottom pie crust filled with a custard
with sliced bananas incorporated into it and topped with meringue. I see no
reason why you couldn't make your own Southern Hemisphere variation. Hope
this helps and have fun.
