WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE NO BAKE CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PIE
You need the following ingredients to make this Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie (the exact measurements are in the recipe card below):
- Oreo cookies – blend the cookies in a food processor or high-speed blender until they are finely ground. Or you can put them into a zip-lock bag, place them on a flat surface, and roll over them with a rolling pin. For a gluten-free version, use any vegan gluten-free cookies, but you may need to adjust the amount of melted butter. You can add about a tablespoon of cocoa powder to make them darker like Oreos.
- Vegan butter – you can also use coconut oil or vegan margarine, but you may need to add less because margarine has more moisture.
- Smooth peanut butter – Gives the perfect flavor and texture to the pie. Use quality natural peanut butter or make your own.
- Vegan sour cream – Makes the pie super creamy and silky. You can substitute for additional coconut cream, but the pie will have a firmer texture.
- Coconut cream – Gives creamy texture. Use a can of full-fat coconut milk, refrigerate it overnight, and then open and scoop out the cream that has separated from the liquid and risen to the top.
- Powdered sugar – used as a sweetener in the peanut butter filling.
- Sea salt – balances the sweetness.
- Dark chocolate – Melt the chocolate and mix it with almond milk to make the ganache. Use a high-quality vegan dark chocolate bar that has around 55-60%.
- Unsweetened almond milk – Make sure it has room temperature. You can use any plant-based milk of your choice, such as soy, oat, cashew, or coconut milk.
Equipment you need:
- Food processor or high-speed blender – to blend the cookies.
- 7-inch pie pan (non-stick) – 18×3,5 cm. If you are not using a non-stick pan, spray or grease it with oil.
- 2 medium-size bowls – one for Oreo crust, one for the peanut butter filling
- Hand mixer
- Silicon spatula
- Glass bowl + small pot – for the chocolate ganache
HOW TO MAKE NO BAKE VEGAN CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PIE

Making this chocolate peanut butter pie is easy and comes with 4 following steps:
1. Step: Make the Oreo crust
In a food processor or blender, crush the Oreos until they are finely ground, and mix them with melted vegan butter in a bowl until properly mixed. Add the mixture to the 7’’ pie pan (18×3,5cm) – if you are not using a non-stick pan, spray or grease it with oil. Press the cookies into the pan, working up the sides a little bit, use the bottom of measuring cup or a tablespoon to pack it tightly. Place it in the fridge while making the filling.
2. Step: Make peanut butter filling
To a medium-size bowl, add peanut butter and vegan sour cream, and mix with a hand mixer until creamy and smooth. Then add coconut cream, powdered sugar, and a pinch of salt, mix on low speed until completely combined.
Pour the filling over the chilled Oreo crust, smooth it on top, and place it in the fridge for about 1 hour to set.
3. Step: Make the chocolate ganache
Place finely chopped dark chocolate bar in a glass bowl, and put it over a small pot with just-boiled water. Don’t let the bottom of the bowl touch the hot water. Let the chocolate slowly heat up and melt. Mix it through a few times. Once the chocolate is melted, slowly and gradually, while stirring, add unsweetened almond milk (use spatula or spoon, don’t use a whisk because it would create bubbles). Stir until combined into a smooth ganache.
Pour the ganache over chilled peanut butter pie and smooth it out evenly.
4. Step: Let it chill in the fridge
Place the pie in the fridge and chill at least for 5 hours or overnight. Once chilled, top with chopped peanuts.
Before serving, I recommend placing the pie in the freezer for about 30 minutes (it will be easier to cut and get out of the pan).
Enjoy!
