This Amish Peanut Butter Cream Pie recipe features a creamy vanilla custard filling, a sweet peanut butter crumble, and a fluffy whipped topping, all nestled in a flaky pie crust. It’s a no-bake dessert that’s perfect for gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pre-baked 9-inch pie crust
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar (for whipped topping)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (for whipped topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pie crust by baking and cooling it if necessary.
  2. Make the peanut butter crumble by combining powdered sugar and peanut butter until crumbly. Set aside.
  3. In a medium saucepan, whisk together granulated sugar, cornstarch, salt, egg yolks, and milk.
  4. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency, about 7-10 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat, stir in butter and vanilla extract. Let the filling cool for 10 minutes.
  6. Sprinkle half of the peanut butter crumbles into the bottom of the cooled pie crust.
  7. Pour the filling over the crumbles and smooth the top.
  8. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours, or until set.
  9. Prepare the whipped topping by beating heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to soft peaks.
  10. Spread the whipped topping over the set pie.
  11. Sprinkle the remaining peanut butter crumbles on top of the whipped cream.
  12. Slice and serve the Amish Peanut Butter Cream Pie chilled.

Notes

  • For best results, use creamy peanut butter, not natural-style, for the crumble.
  • Ensure the filling is thick before removing it from heat.
  • The pie can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 2 days; add whipped topping just before serving.
  • Freezing the pie will alter the texture.
