This classic Amish-inspired peanut butter pie is an easy, creamy dessert with plenty of nostalgic flavor. A buttery baked crust is filled with sweet peanut butter crumbs and a smooth peanut butter filling, creating a delicious combination of creamy and crumbly textures.
It’s a wonderful make-ahead dessert for family meals, gatherings, holidays, or whenever you’re craving something rich and comforting.
Ingredients
Crust
- 1 (9-inch) pie crust
Peanut Butter Filling
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1½ cups whole milk
Directions
1. Prepare the Crust
Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and shape or crimp the edges. Use a fork to prick several holes across the bottom.
Cover the crust with parchment paper and add pie weights, dried beans, or uncooked rice. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden.
Carefully remove the parchment and weights. Bake the crust for an additional 8–10 minutes, or until the bottom is completely baked and golden brown.
Set the crust aside and allow it to cool completely.
2. Make the Peanut Butter Crumbs
Add the peanut butter and powdered sugar to a medium mixing bowl.
Work the two ingredients together with a spoon or fork until they form small, evenly distributed crumbs.
3. Add the First Layer
Take half of the peanut butter crumb mixture and scatter it evenly across the cooled pie crust.
Gently spread the crumbs into an even layer.
4. Make the Creamy Filling
Pour the milk into the bowl containing the remaining peanut butter crumbs.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly until it becomes smooth and creamy. Continue whisking until there are no noticeable lumps.
5. Fill the Crust
Slowly pour the creamy peanut butter mixture over the crumb layer inside the pie crust.
Lightly tap the pie dish against the counter to help remove trapped air and smooth out the filling.
6. Refrigerate
Place the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, allowing enough time for the filling to firm up.
For the richest flavor and best consistency, let the pie chill overnight.
7. Slice and Serve
Once fully chilled, slice the pie and serve cold.
For an extra finishing touch, lightly sprinkle the top with powdered sugar.
Optional Toppings
For even more flavor, try serving each slice with:
- Whipped cream
- Chopped peanuts
- Chocolate sauce
- An extra sprinkle of powdered sugar
Keep the finished pie covered and refrigerated until serving.
