This no-bake peanut butter pie is ultra creamy and completely delicious!
I need to tell you something… and it’s pretty shocking.
You might want to sit down for this.
There’s more to life than chocolate.
I didn’t believe it either, until I tried this rich and creamy no-bake peanut butter pie. It’ll only take one bite to convince you: There is life outside Planet Chocolate.
For my birthday every year, I usually have my favorite: The Ultimate Chocolate Pie
However, this no-bake peanut butter pie was so good it forced me to make an exception. Really, I didn’t miss the chocolate one bit.
So you know it must have been good!

Technically, chocolate did still make an appearance at the party—in the crust and topping.
Just because life exists outside of chocolate doesn’t mean we should pack our bags and move away forever.
Please, let’s not go too crazy now.
Is there a special dessert that you always eat on your birthday?
In my family, we have this cake called Maple Chiffon Cake, and pretty much all of my relatives have that cake on their birthdays– uncles, aunts, mom, dad, sister… just not me.
Even as a little kid, I wasn’t interested if it wasn’t chocolate!
And I prefer pie to cake, so I’ve had a lot of chocolate pie birthdays.
It never gets old.

With my Healthy Chocolate Pie Crust

No-Bake Peanut Butter Pie
Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter or allergy-friendly alternative
- 3 medium bananas (Here is a Banana Free Version)
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp salt, plus pinch more if using unsalted pb
- 1/4 cup virgin coconut oil, melted (Can sub 1/4 cup extra pb; the texture will just change)
- sweetener of choice to taste, or 4 tbsp powdered sugar or pure maple syrup
InstructionsÂ
- *The recipe yields a thin pie, so if you want a deeper recipe be sure to try this Peanut Butter Pie Recipe instead.Blend everything together very well in a food processor or high speed blender. Pour into a prepared pie crust or springform pan--this pie can easily be crustless!--and freeze until firm. (If not using the coconut oil, just chill in the fridge instead.) Pie should be kept cold; I keep it in the freezer. Just thaw before eating, and the mousse-like texture will come right back!View Nutrition Facts

Katie, I tried the no-bake peanut butter pie on my family today. They loved it. Thanks! I also love reading your daily emails and cute comments about recipes. You have such a great attitude and such a fun outlook on things.
Oh my, every picture is making my mouth water! I don’t have enough time in my day to try all these LOL. I have 4 boys ages 6 to 16 and finding healthy dessert recipes that they like has been a challenge, I believe I hit the jackpot with your blog! Thanks!
Just made this with my roommate. SO GOOD. And its actually super filling too!
Maybe a silly question here, but do I measure the coconut oil before I melt it (like I would butter) ?
Best to measure after melted.
Just made this and put it in the freezer. I ate a bit of the mixture (well, I had to wipe the bowl and spoon clean, right?) and it is heavenly! I’ve put it on a base made of ground almonds, dates and cocoa. Can’t wait until I can try the whole combination. I can eat this for breakfast, right??
Mmmm it is lovely and a small piece is so filling!
Recipes look fantastic. Can’t wait to try one. I appreciate your sharing them with us.
looks super delicious 🙂 yumm

Will using thawed frozen bananas work ok or will it be too wet? I know it’ll all be frozen so maybe it won’t be an issue. I’ve made this before with fresh bananas and it was great. Going in for round 2. 🙂
I’ve tried frozen and it worked just fine!
I was reading some of the comments. Could you lessen the bananas and do Greek yogurt?
Why not just use the linked banana-free option in the recipe?
Hi katie.. I loooove this recipe and I use PB2 for the filling. Can you tell me if the nutrition info you use includes the crust?? It’d be really helpful to know. Thanks!!! PS – just bought your cookbook 🙂
Looks fab just wanted to know what is in the pie base ingredient wise is that low cal too and can you send details to me.
Thanks?
