CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER BANANA CREAM PIE



Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Cream Pie image

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 BANANA PIE



Peanut Butter Banana Pie image

There are a few steps to this cool, creamy and very rich pie, but don't let that deter you. It's delightful! The vanilla wafer crust is a nice base for all the yumminess on top. The bananas and homemade custard almost become a thick banana pudding once in the crust. The fluffy peanut butter topping we could eat with a spoon.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 27

CRUST
1 1/2 c vanilla wafer crumbs
1/3 c butter or margarine, softened
1/4 c sugar
1 egg white, reserve yolk
BANANAS
3 bananas, sliced
1/4 c orange juice, fresh or bottle
CUSTARD
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1/2 c sugar
1/8 tsp salt
1 c milk
1 c heavy cream
2 large egg yolks, reserve whites
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp banana extract
PEANUT BUTTER TOPPING
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1 c powdered sugar
1/2 c peanut butter, creamy
8 oz Cool Whip
1/8 c chocolate chips, mini
GARNISH- OPTIONAL
crushed peanuts
chocolate chips, mini
caramel sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Crust: Preheat oven 350 degrees. Put about 40 vanilla wafers into food processor or hand crush. Combine vanilla wafer crumbs, sugar, and softened butter, mix well.
  • 2. Press into 9-inch pie plate.
  • 3. Brush with egg white.
  • 4. Put in oven and bake 10 minutes. Watch closely so it doesn't burn! Cool completely before you add the bananas and custard. You can buy vanilla wafer crust at the grocery store but I think this is better.
  • 5. Slice bananas and put in 1/4 cup orange juice, this will prevent them from browning and add a little zip!
  • 6. Drain bananas and place on the bottom of pie crust.
  • 7. Custard: Add cornstarch, sugar, salt, both kinds of milk, egg yolks, vanilla and banana flavorings. You must stir constantly this while adding ingredients until well blended and smooth before putting on the heat.
  • 8. Turn on the heat and keep stirring until thick and bubbly.
  • 9. Remove from heat and pour on top of bananas in pie crust.
  • 10. Peanut Butter Topping: Mix with mixer cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Add 1/4 cup peanut butter, mix well. At this point taste the mixture to see if you like the strength of the peanut butter and add more if you want. I added another 1/4 cup (1/2 cup total) which I really liked. Blend additional peanut butter until smooth and creamy.
  • 11. Take 8oz container of Cool Whip and 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips and fold into peanut butter mixture. Do not over stir.
  • 12. Place peanut butter topping on top of custard.
  • 13. Garnish (optional): Drizzle with caramel sauce. Top with crushed peanuts and/or mini chocolate chips.
  • 14. Refrigerate until set - 5-6 hours or overnight.

PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA PUDDING PIE



Peanut Butter and Banana Pudding Pie image

This decadent pudding pie capitalizes on the iconic duo: peanut butter and banana. A sweet amalgamation of banana pudding and peanut butter pie, this dessert has "crowd favorite" written all over it. Be sure to note that the recipe calls for a deep-dish pie plate, as the filling would overfill a standard pie dish. Top with crumbled wafers and banana slices, as desired.

Provided by Darcy Lenz

Time 9h35m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 ¾ cups crushed vanilla wafers
2 tablespoons white sugar
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup creamy peanut butter, divided
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 medium ripe banana, thinly sliced
1 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
4 large egg yolks
1 cup white sugar
¼ cup cornstarch
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
2 ¼ cups half-and-half
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, cut into pieces
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon banana extract
¾ cup crushed vanilla wafers
1 medium ripe banana, thinly sliced
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, sifted
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Whisk cookie crumbs, sugar, and salt for crust together in a medium bowl. Stir in the melted butter until mixture is coated and moist. Press the crumb mixture evenly along the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch, deep-dish pie plate.
  • Bake crust in the preheated oven until golden brown and firm, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Melt 1/2 cup of the peanut butter and butter for the peanut butter layer in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, whisking to combine. Once melted, set aside to cool slightly, about 2 minutes. Pour mixture into bottom of the cooled crust, carefully smoothing into an even layer with a silicone spatula. Arrange the banana slices in an even layer over the peanut butter.
  • Combine the remaining ½ cup peanut butter and confectioners' sugar in a medium bowl. Cut the peanut butter into the sugar using a fork until a crumbly, streusel-like mixture forms; you will get about 2 scant cups of this mixture. Sprinkle about half of this mixture over the sliced bananas. Gently press with clean fingertips into a relatively even layer. Place pie in refrigerator while you make the pudding.
  • Beat egg yolks for banana pudding layer with a whisk in a medium bowl until well combined; set aside. Whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan to evenly combine. Whisk in half-and-half, making sure all ingredients are well distributed. Place the pan over medium heat; cook, stirring constantly, until mixture has thickened slightly and gently begins to simmer, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove pan from heat and, while whisking rapidly, slowly drizzle about ½ to 1 cup of the hot cream mixture into the eggs to temper. Keep whisking until smooth and combined. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and return to medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens further, 3 to 6 minutes. Remove pan from heat and whisk in the butter, vanilla, and banana extract.
  • Pour the pudding mixture into a large mixing bowl and press a sheet of plastic wrap onto the surface of the pudding to prevent a "skin" from forming. Cool to room temperature, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Once pudding has cooled, pour about half of the pudding into the pie shell. Sprinkle the crumbled wafers in an even layer over top. Arrange the banana slices over the wafers. Sprinkle the remaining peanut butter crumble mixture over the bananas. Pour remaining pudding over top. (Some of the peanut butter crumble and banana slices may float towards the surface; that's just fine. Smooth the surface as well as you can with a silicone spatula.) Place a piece of plastic wrap directly onto surface of the pudding filling to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for 8 hours, or overnight.
  • When ready to serve, combine heavy cream, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla for topping in a chilled mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment until medium-soft peaks form. Spoon the whipped cream on top of the pie.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: Ripened bananas add sweetness, creaminess, and moisture to the pie filling.
  • Choose the right peanut butter: Opt for a creamy, natural peanut butter without added sugar or oils.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will result in a tough crust. Mix just until the ingredients come together.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will make it easier to roll out and prevent it from shrinking in the oven.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set: The pie is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the pie cool completely before slicing: This will allow the filling to firm up and the flavors to meld together.
