Maybe it is because I live in Georgia, the peanut capital of the US, but no cookout, potluck or church dinner would be complete with a peanut butter pie. I actually have a collection of different peanut butter pie recipes and it is one of the recipes people request most often. When my daughter had to adapt to a gluten free lifestyle, she still wanted to enjoy one of her favorite desserts. I adapted this version to be low fat and gluten free, but if you want to make it the traditional Southern way, simply substitute regular ingredients instead of low fat and add the mixture to a graham cracker pie crust. I made mini cakes in silicone cupcake holders because they are so rich. These can be stored in the freezer and pulled out when you have a craving for something sweet. These were such a hit with the kids and their friends that when one of them said they were full, another kid said, “I’ll take theirs!”
- 2 (8 ounce) packages no fat cream cheese
- 1 (16 ounce) container no fat whipped topping
- 3/4 cup reduced fat or all natural peanut butter
- 1/2 cup artificial sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Add the cream cheese, vanilla and sweetener to a large mixing bowl. Beat until fluffy. Add the peanut butter and mix well. Add the whipped topping; mix well. Pour the filling in silicone cupcake holders or into an 8 inch round pie pan. Freeze for two hours.
Do you have a favorite peanut butter pie recipe that is gluten free? What do you eat when the need for sweets hits and you are dieting?

Peanut butter pie? Wow that looks so good. And gluten free? Awesome.
As I start to look into trying a gluten free diet, recipes like this make it seem easy! Yum!
I am a peanutbutter finatic so I am sure I would LOVE this. Plus, it doesn’t call for many ingredients, which is a major plus.
That looks great, but I could eat far more than that one!
I love this recipe! Would be a nice surprise for my MIL who is diabetic.
I think the portion size is great! My BFF loves PB pie, so I might make these for her birthday!
Such a yummy treat! 🙂 I’m still having a hard time making gluten free goodies – but still practicing 🙂

You should totally invite me over next time you make this. So I can test it and make sure it’s not poisoned and is safe for your family. 😉
This sounds delicious. I love peanut butter desserts.
I love that you can make these up and store them in the freezer. Perfect for when you want a sweet treat but don’t want an entire platter near you
We don’t have a need to factor in gluten free but when we come across a recipe that is, we definitely make note. I would have never guessed a peanut butter pie could be gluten free!

This is our FAVORITE pie ever! I make this for a lot of our gatherings and it is gobbled up. The fancy restaurant down the road charges $8 a slice for this! I can get 2 whole pies for that!
I’ll bet my boyfriend would gobble that up in about three seconds flat. You’re so good to your daughter with giving her treats!
Ooh, perfect for when my mother in law (and brother in law) come visit! They both have Celiac.
Your peanut butter pie looks delicious! Thanks for sharing a recipe!
Wow that looks amazing! And really cool that it’s gluten free. I used to think Gluten free meant a lot of tasteless food, but this peanut butter pie looks amazing.
Man this looks delicious. I’ve never had peanut butter pie. I wish I could lick my screen to give it a try. looks so good. Lol
I would probably use all the low fat low sugar ingredients–then put the mixture into individual graham cracker crusts!! This sounds delicious!!!

Such a nice presentation! That reminds me of an excellent way to end a meal at a fine dining establishment (which I’m always up for, but rarely get to frequent). 🙂

That peanut butter pie looks so good! I need to try some gluten-free recipes, thank you!
I love, love, love peanut butter pie. Miss eating it so much that I could almost break down and try a piece sometime… I could use my stevia in this recipe and my Hubs could eat it then. I like your gluten free version.
looks yummy – that perfect after dinner treat!
p.s. I want to thank you for a post that allows me to “print” the recipe without having to print the entire blog. I’m not savvy enough to know how to do that, so I really appreciate it when you do it for me!
What a fun recipe…pinned. Sounds delicious! Cute making it in the silicone cupcake pans.
I’ve never had peanut butter pie, but this sounds like a wonderful sweet idea! I’m going to make something different for our wholesalers for next Sunday (yes, they’ll be open on the Sunday before Valentine’s Day … bless them … so we can get their freshest roses). I take chocolate creations all the time. I think I’ll try this one for for them instead!
It’s a little small, so I would need at least three of them LOL. This sounds delicious.
LOL I was thinking the same thing! Sounds so delicious I would require several. 😉
