It’s the weekend and we all deserve some super easy, completely no-bake, mile-high peanut butter pie! 🙌 This No-Bake Peanut Butter Pie is just what we need for Labor Day. It’s cool and creamy and simple to whip up.
Best of all, it’s THICK and like a little mountain of peanut buttery goodness in an Oreo crust.

My goal here was for this pie to have some height on it. I will say that you have to act quickly after shaping the filling in the pie crust and then popping it in the freezer. Mine almost wanted to spill over the edges a little bit, but I used a rubber spatula to swipe around the edges and keep it piled higher in the center. Once I put it in the freezer, it held its shape perfectly!
The filling is made up of lots of delicious creamy things like cream cheese, Greek yogurt, sweetened condensed milk, and (obviously) creamy peanut butter.

First off, you can and absolutely should use a store bought pie crust if that’s what works best for you! I was tempted to buy one at the grocery store simply because I hate cleaning my food processor. 😂
But I also wanted to use peanut butter creme filled Oreos for the Maximum Peanut Butter Experience, so I decided to go with a homemade crust. You use two of the three rows of Oreos in the package, and the rest you can eat crumble on top for garnish.
I topped this pie with a homemade whipped cream for extra height, but it will be just as delicious and enjoyable if you chose to skip it!
Happy weekend, peanut butter lovers, and happy baking!
