Peanut Butter Pie - From Scratch - Cass's image

I grew up enjoying this creamy custardy type Peanut Butter pie at a local restaurant. I would be so disappointed when they would sell out of it before I got my piece..lol! The owners of the restaurant sold before I was ever able to get my hands on the recipe. So, I worked on a recipe till I got it right. it's as close to their...

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 c milk
1/3 c sugar
1/4 c butter
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c water
4 Tbsp corn starch
4 egg yolks
3 - 4 Tbsp peanut butter, creamy - i have also used chunky
1 - 8 ounce tub, whipped cream
crushed peanuts, chocolate chips ( optional )
1 - 9 inch baked pie crust

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare 9 inch pie crust. Could probably use graham cracker crust also. I prefer home made.
  • 2. In a large saucepan, combine butter, milk, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil, and stir occasionally.
  • 3. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk cornstarch and water until smooth, then whisk in egg yolks.
  • 4. Whisk egg mixture into boiling milk mixture and stir until thick, over medium heat. (This will thicken quickly)
  • 5. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter. Pour into baked pie shell. ( You may want to taste the pudding at this point to see if it's enough peanut butter to your liking)
  • 6. Chill, then top with whipped cream. I sometimes add chopped nuts and milk chocolate chips to garnish. This pie is delicious, if you are a peanut butter lover you should love this pie. This pie is also great with a layer of chocolate ganache on the crust before pouring the pudding into the crust.
