Prepare pie crust sheet according to package directions for an unfilled one-crust pie using a 9-inch glass pie plate. Fold under edge of crust along pie plate edge. Cut edge at 1/4-inch intervals. Gently press alternate pieces of crust forward. Microwave at HIGH for 5-7 minutes giving pie plate a one-half turn during cooking time.

Fold in whipped topping and banana. Spoon filling evenly into pastry shell. Sprinkle with nuts and freeze at least 8 hours.
