Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie, THM S, SF, GF

You just can’t go wrong when you pair peanut butter and chocolate together, and in a pie, what could be better!! Peanut Butter Pie has always been a favorite at this house and I’m sure it will be at your house, too!

When I initially made this pie…I used a crumb crust which didn’t stay together like I wanted. So out can the mixer bowl and and brand new pie crust was created that you can roll out. This crust is easy to make and holds up very well when you slice the pie.

My former Peanut Butter Pie used full fat cream cheese and lot of whipping cream. I lightened this recipe by using 1/3 fat cream cheese and non-fat Greek Yogurt. I love the texture of the pie and it is best after being chilled for 4-6 hours.

Lily’s Chocolates are sweetened with Stevia and my family loves them. The milk chocolate are the best but you can also use dark chocolate peanut butter cups to garish this pie.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie, THM S, SF, GF

  • Crust:
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup THM Peanut Flour
  • 1/4 cup oat flour or rolled oats ground fine
  • 2 tablespoons THM Gentle Sweet
  • 4 tablespoons cold butter, cut into cubes
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 8-9 tablespoons water
  • Filling:
  • 1 cup sugar-free peanut butter
  • 1 1/4 cups non-fat Greek Yogurt
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened — I used 1/3 fat
  • 1/3 cup Brown Sugar Sweetener Substitute or Gentle Sweet
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon THM Peanut Butter Extract
  • 2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
  • Garnishes:
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon THM Gentle Sweet
  • 1/8 teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 4 Lily’s Peanut Butter cups
  • Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a mixer bowl combine cocoa powder, peanut flour, oat flour, Gentle Sweet and Butter. Mix until crumbly. Beat egg yolk with 7 tablespoons water. Add to the crumbs in the mixer bowl. Mix until dough starts to stick together. Add additional water if needed. Shape dough into a round ball. Lay between to pieces of plastic wrap. Roll dough unto large enough to fit into a 9-inch pie plate. Pull off 1 piece of plastic wrap and flip the pie crust into the pie pan. Pull of the remaining plastic wrap. Fit the crust into the pan. Trim the edges of the crust. Bake for 5-7 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely. Filling: In a mixer bowl combine the peanut butter, Greek Yogurt, cream cheese, and sweetener of your choice. Mix until smooth and well blended. Add vanilla, peanut butter extract, and whipping cream. Whip for 1-2 minutes or until mixture is fluffy. Spoon into baked crust. Refrigerate for 4-6 hours. Garnishes: In a small bowl, whip cream, Gentle Sweet, and xanthan gum together unto thickened. Garnish the pie with the whipped cream and peanut butter cups. 8 servings.

Pie crust can be tricky to roll out. The best help I have found is saran wrap and a little oat fiber. I roll the crust between to piece of saran warp and it works very well.

Below you will see the unbaked crust. It doesn’t matter if it looks a little shaggy, it will still taste delicious. Be sure and not to over bake it or you will have a dry hard crust. The curst may not appear done after 5-7 minutes of baking time but it will continue to setup as it cools.

This pie can be made using ingredients you can find at your local grocery store or Walmart. Truvia (not the blend) is a great replacement for Gentle Sweet. Peanut Flour can be found in the aisle with the peanut butter. I often use Crazy Richard’s Peanut Butter or the sugar-free Jif.
