Protein Peanut Butter Pie

6 Slices311 cals

Thanksgiving is right around the corner so let’s make a pie! That pie? A delicious Protein Peanut Butter Pie made with simple ingredients that you don’t need an oven to make! This no bake dessert is packed with healthy macros and one of my favorite holiday recipes.

P.S. Let me know your favorite kind of pie in the comments.

Start this by adding into a large mixing bowl 8 ounces of reduced or fat free cream cheese, 7 ounces of Greek yogurt, 8 tablespoons of powdered peanut butter, 60 grams protein powder, 1-2 tablespoons of some optional sweetener, and 8 tablespoons of peanut butter.

Texture! If you want it “smooth”, continue as is and move onto the next step. If you want your texture more like a peanut butter cup, add in 1/4 teaspoon of some xanthan gum.

Make sure to use a complimenting flavor for your protein powder and Greek yogurt. I like vanilla but chocolate, banana, etc will just great too!

Pro tip? If your mix isn’t smooth enough as is, add in a little more Greek yogurt.

Mix all of those ingredients together, a hand mixer will make this step easier (linked below). You could also make this in a food processor if you have one of those too!

Protein Pie Crust

Next, choose a crust for your protein peanut butter pie. You can make your own with graham crackers or go my route today and use a pre-made one. I usually like things quick so I almost always use a pre-made one.

Graham Cracker Crust

  • 6 Sheets Graham Cracker
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter or Other Oil (Coconut!)

Almost Flour Crust

  • 3/4 Cup Almond Flour
  • 3 Tablespoons Butter or Other Oil (Coconut!)

Mix and bake your choice crust on 350F/176C for 12-15 minutes or until it’s lightly browned.

Pour your mix into your pie crust, optionally top it with whatever you want like some regular or sugar free peanut butter chips, and put it in the fridge for 20-30 minutes.

Protein Peanut Butter Pie Topping

You can eat this as is or add a quick protein topping to it. To add the topping, mix together 3 ounces of reduced or fat free cream cheese, 3 ounces of a complimenting flavored Greek yogurt, 20 grams of chocolate protein powder, and 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder.

Spread that on and it should end up looking like this…

Keep in mind that full fat cream cheese also works great for this recipe but the macros won’t be nearly as good.

I usually cut this into 6 pieces! Yes, unfortunately it’s not a single serving. Don’t forget to store it in the fridge.
