This delicious, dairy free, no bake peanut butter pie recipe is made right in your food processor or high-speed blender with simple ingredients like coconut oil, silken tofu, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and creamy peanut butter. With the addition of melted cacao butter, this thick, creamy peanut butter filling - nestled in a vegan graham cracker pie crust - doesn’t taste like a healthy version of a peanut butter pie…it is every bit as decadent as the original we know and love.
MAKE THE FILLING: Add all the filling ingredients to a food processor or high-powered blender (like a Vitamix) and blend until the texture is creamy and shiny. Stop to scrape the sides down as needed. It can take up to 4 minutes to get that shiny look.
ASSEMBLE AND CHILL: Use rubber spatula to pour the filling into the prepared pie crust and smooth out the top with the rubber spatula, creating a swirl pattern if desired. Cover and chill in the fridge overnight or 6-8 hours until cooled all the way through and firm enough to slice.
SERVE: Slice and serve this vegan peanut butter pie immediately after slicing. Serve the slices as-is or with an extra sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs or crushed peanuts and perhaps a dollop of non dairy whipped cream. Enjoy!
STORE: Store leftover peanut butter pie covered in the fridge for 5-7 days. Leftover slices can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 8 weeks. I prefer to store them in slices rather than as a whole pie because they defrost faster that way and you can just defrost what you need and leave the rest.
