Amish Peanut Butter Cream Pie (Easy, Creamy, No-Bake) (Page 2 ) | July 2, 2025

 

Instructions

 Make the Peanut Butter Crumbles:

In a bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar using a fork until crumbly. Reserve ½ cup of the crumbs for topping, and press the remaining crumbs evenly into the bottom of the cooled, pre-baked pie crust.

 Prepare the Cream Filling:

In a medium saucepan, whisk together granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Gradually whisk in milk until smooth.

Place over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture begins to thicken and bubble.

In a separate bowl, lightly beat the egg yolks. Gradually add a small amount of the hot milk mixture to the yolks, whisking quickly to temper them, then return the yolk mixture to the saucepan while whisking constantly.

Continue cooking for 2–3 minutes until the mixture is thick.

Remove from heat, add butter and vanilla extract, and whisk until smooth.

 Assemble:

Pour the hot cream filling over the peanut butter crumbs in the crust, spreading evenly.

Allow the pie to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully set.

 Peanut Butter Topping:

Once the pie is set, gently melt the remaining peanut butter in the microwave (10–15 seconds) until pourable but not too hot.

Pour the melted peanut butter over the top of the chilled pie, spreading gently with a spatula to create a smooth swirl.

Sprinkle the reserved peanut butter crumbs over the top for texture and garnish with piped whipped cream if desired.

Tips & Variations

For a chocolate twist, add a thin layer of melted chocolate over the cream layer before adding the peanut butter topping.

 To make a no-bake version, use a graham cracker crust and a no-cook instant pudding mix for the filling.

 This pie pairs perfectly with holiday dinners or as a weeknight treat, helping to drive seasonal high CPC dessert traffic.

 Use chunky peanut butter for a bit of texture if preferred.

 Add a drizzle of melted chocolate or caramel for extra appeal in your food photos to attract Pinterest traffic.
