Provided by Anne Thornton, Host of Dessert First

Time 4h10m

Yield 1 (9-inch) pie

Number Of Ingredients 22

65 vanilla wafers cookies, finely crushed
1 stick butter, melted, plus more for pan
3 ripe bananas, peeled, thinly sliced on a diagonal
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1/2 cup peanut brittle, ground into crumbs
Chocolate Pudding, recipe follows
Peanut Butter Cream, recipe follows
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoons almond extract
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup peanut brittle, broken into bite-size pieces
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
4 egg yolks
2 cups milk, divided
4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (do not use old-fashioned or freshly ground)
2/3 cup chilled heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a deep 9 by 2-inch pie plate.
  • Drizzle the crushed vanilla wafers with the melted butter and stir until blended. Press on the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate. Pop in the oven and bake until lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
  • Toss the banana slices with the orange juice, making sure all the slices get coated. (This helps keep the bananas from browning.) Place the slices on a paper towel-lined plate and pat any excess juices dry.
  • Arrange half the banana slices in a single layer over the cooled crust. Cover completely with the Chocolate Pudding, spreading it with an offset spatula or butter knife. Top with the rest of the bananas. Sprinkle the peanut brittle crumbs over the bananas. Place dollops of the Peanut Butter Cream on top, spreading it out evenly. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
  • Whip the cream until stiff peaks are just about to form. Whip in the almond extract and sugar until stiff peaks form.
  • Take the pie out of the refrigerator. Place dollops of the whipped cream on top and spread it out evenly. Scatter pieces of peanut brittle on top and serve.
  • Whisk the sugar, cocoa powder and flour in a bowl until there are no lumps. Crack the eggs into the bowl, add the yolks and whisk into a paste. Slowly whisk in 1 cup milk until it is fully incorporated, and then whisk in the remaining 1 cup milk. Put the milk mixture into a saucepan and put over medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until it starts to look like pudding, 10 to 15 minutes. It will begin to bubble and it will hold soft peaks when you lift the whisk out. Take off the heat and cool to room temperature.
  • Beat the cream cheese and confectioners'sugar with an electric mixer until completely smooth. Add the vanilla and peanut butter, beating until fully incorporated. In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Working in batches, taking care not to deflate the whipped cream, fold a large spoonful of whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture. Fold in the remaining cream in 2 additions.

PEANUT BUTTER-CHOCOLATE BANANA CREAM PIE



Peanut Butter-Chocolate Banana Cream Pie image

My family loves this recipe. I found it in a Kraft food & family book. I will give the original recipe here. I have made a few changes for our family such as I like Reeses peanut butter and I use Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips if I don't have the bakers chocolate. I hope you all enjoy it as much as we do. Shortcut: You can substitute a prepared Nilla Pie Crust for the Nilla wafers and butter. Cooking time is actually refrigeration time.

BANANA CREAM & PEANUT BUTTER MOUSSE PIE



Banana Cream & Peanut Butter Mousse Pie image

My pie is special because it is ultra creamy and has three foods I desire most-peanut butter, banana and milk chocolate. I opted to make my own pie filling from scratch as it takes very little time and the result is definitely worth it. The peanut butter mousse is light and has velvety smooth texture. It is a melt-in-your mouth dessert and my husband gave it a 5-star rating.-Barbara Estabrook, Rhinelander, Wisconsin

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

Vanilla wafer crust:
6 ounces vanilla wafer cookies
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 tablespoons sugar
Vanilla pudding filling:
1/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup whole milk
2 large egg yolks
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 firm but ripe bananas, peeled, divided
3 tablespoons orange juice, divided
Peanut butter layer:
3 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter (do not use old-fashioned or freshly ground)
2/3 cup chilled heavy whipping cream
Purchased peanut brittle, coarsely chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • For vanilla wafer crust:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine all ingredients in processor; blend until mixture resembles moist crumbs, about 1 minute. Transfer to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish and press mixture onto bottom and up sides (not rim) of dish. Bake crust until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Remove from oven; press crust with back of spoon if puffed. Cool crust completely.
  • For vanilla pudding filling:
  • Whisk sugar, cornstarch, and salt in heavy medium saucepan until no lumps remain. Gradually whisk in cream, then milk. Add yolks and scrape in seeds from vanilla bean; whisk to blend. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until pudding thickens and boils, about 5 minutes. Add butter and stir until melted. Spread warm pudding in cooled crust. Chill until filling is cool, about 1 hour.
  • Thinly slice 3 bananas on diagonal. Combine banana slices and 2 tablespoons orange juice in medium bowl; toss to coat. Transfer banana slices to paper towels and pat dry. Arrange enough banana slices in single layer over vanilla custard filling to cover completely.
  • For peanut butter layer:
  • Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar in medium bowl until smooth. Beat in vanilla, then peanut butter. Beat cream in another medium bowl until firm peaks form. Fold large spoonful of whipped cream into peanut mixture to loosen, then fold in remaining cream in 2 additions. Spread peanut butter layer evenly over bananas. Chill at least 3 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 8 hours ahead. Keep chilled.
  • Thinly slice remaining banana on diagonal. Toss with remaining 1 tablespoon orange juice, then pat dry with paper towels. Arrange banana slices around top edge of pie. Sprinkle peanut brittle over bananas, if desired, and serve.

Tips:

  • For a creamier pie, use full-fat peanut butter and cream cheese.
  • If you don't have a blender, you can mash the bananas with a fork or potato masher.
  • To make the pie ahead of time, prepare the crust and filling the day before. Cover the pie and refrigerate it overnight. Let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
  • Garnish the pie with whipped cream, chopped peanuts, or banana slices before serving.

Conclusion:

This peanut butter banana cream pie is an easy and delicious dessert that's perfect for any occasion. It's creamy, peanut buttery, and loaded with banana flavor. With its simple ingredients and straightforward instructions, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try!
