Gluten-free No Bake Peanut Butter Pie

This Gluten-free No Bake Peanut Butter Pie is very creamy, vegan, dairy-free, delicious and incredible easy to throw together.

I know here in North America almost everybody grows up eating peanut butter with bananas, apples and toast, right? So yummy! But do you know it’s not very traditional to eat peanut butter in South America? Well… Now it’s getting more popular, but when I grew up 30 something years ago it certainly wasn’t popular. To be honest I ate peanut butter for the first time here in Canada few years ago. At first I didn’t like much, but now I love it!

This Gluten-free No Bake Peanut Butter Pie is a frozen pie that is perfect for summer, which is right around the corner. It’s time to start eating some frozen treats. Don’t you agree with me?

I was very amazed by the flavour of this peanut butter pie. I mean… Don’t get me wrong I knew this pie was going to taste delicious. This combo (peanut butter, banana and chocolate) it’s hard to beat, right? But because it’s so simple to make I didn’t think it would taste this GOOD!

So, let’s talk about how is made this delicious Gluten-free No Bake Peanut Butter Pie.

1. First you start with the crust, which is made with peanuts, cashews, natural sweetener, almond milk, cocoa powder, pure vanilla extract and salt. You can see that this crust is very healthy and yet tasty… Love it!
2. Second the filling: if you like peanut butter and bananas you are going to love this filling. It’s super flavourful, creamy and addictive I have to say 😉 The mixture is made in the food processor and has banana, natural peanut butter, almond milk, vanilla and a little bit of salt. It literally tastes like heaven 😉
3. Last the topping: I melted a dark chocolate bar in the microwave and drizzle all over the pie. Hmm… So GOOD! Of course you have to choose a good quality chocolate! Then add some roasted peanuts!
