I’ve made a vegan peanut butter pie before you know. Specifically, it was my vegan chocolate peanut butter oreo pie! And that was a VERY good pie. Chocolate and peanut butter is a match made in heaven after all.
But I really think I took it to the next level with THIS pie!
It’s not chocolate flavored, it’s straight up peanut butter flavor but it IS drizzled with melted chocolate, set on top of an oreo cookie base, and decorated with vegan whipped chocolate cream!
Making this vegan peanut butter pie is a lot of fun but eating it is even more so!
It kind of goes without saying since we have already uttered the words: peanut butter, melted chocolate and oreo cookie base, but…. this pie is rich!
I’m not the type to shy away from a decent sized slice of dessert but even I opted for a very small slice here because it was just so satisfying.
Aside from the time spent setting in the freezer here, this pie is really quick and easy to make. Nothing needs to be baked!
The base is crushed oreo cookies mixed with melted vegan butter.
The filling is whipped coconut cream, peanut butter and powdered sugar. The chocolate cream is whipped coconut cream with some added cocoa powder and powdered sugar.
The decorating drizzles are melted chocolate and melted peanut butter. The result is an extravagantly gorgeous decadent dessert that’s easy and fun to whip up.
You will love this gorgeous vegan peanut butter pie! It is:
- Creamy
- Decadent
- Delicious
- Easy
- No-Bake
- Peanut Butter!
This pie is absolutely best when served straight from the fridge!

Pin RecipeDescription
This simple, 8-ingredient no-bake vegan peanut butter pie has an oreo cookie crust, a creamy peanut butter center and chocolate whipped cream and melted chocolate on top! Purely irresistible!
Ingredients
For the Oreo Cookie Crust:
- 28 Oreos (crushed)
- 1/3 cup (75g) Vegan Butter (Melted)
For the Peanut Butter Center:
- 1 12oz (340g) Tub of Creamy Salted Peanut Butter
- 1 14oz (400g) Can Coconut Cream (chilled overnight)
- 1 cup (120g) Powdered (Confectioners) Sugar
For the Topping:
- 1 14oz (400g) Can Coconut Cream (chilled overnight)
- 2 Tbsp Cocoa Powder (Unsweetened)
- 2 Tbsp Powdered Sugar
For Decoration (optional):
- Melted Peanut Butter (drizzled)
- Melted Vegan Chocolate (drizzled)
- Crushed Peanuts
Instructions
- Crush the oreo cookies in a food processor or by placing in a ziplock bag and crushing with a rolling pin. Melt the vegan butter and mix in with the oreo cookie crumbs in a bowl until properly mixed.
- Spray a pie dish with non-stick spray and then pat down the oreo crust, working up the sides a little bit. Place into the freezer to set while you work on the filling.
- Remove one can of coconut cream from the fridge. Open it and you’ll see the cream has risen to the top and hardened a bit. Scoop out only this cream section at the top into the mixing bowl of an electric mixer, leaving the watery part behind.
- Starting at slow speed, gradually increase speed until the cream is whipped. Check out our full tutorial here.
- Scoop out the jar of peanut butter and add it to the whipped cream along with the powdered sugar and mix together on low speed until properly mixed.
- Pour this out over the top of the oreo cookie crust and smooth out. Place back into the freezer to set.
- Remove the second can of coconut cream from the fridge and repeat the process of whipping it up into whipped cream. Add the cocoa powder and powdered sugar and whip again.
- Pipe the chocolate cream out onto the edges of the pie. Any chocolate cream leftovers can be saved for serving.
- Decorate the pie with drizzles of melted peanut butter and melted vegan chocolate and crushed peanuts.

I made this recipe again, because I liked it so much in April when I first tried it.
Since I only had coconut milk at home, I used this and though the consistency and taste was slightly different, it still worked. In the future I will use real coconut cream again, but even with alterations you get a great pie.
Thank you so much for the recipe, it is incredibly easy to make and still gets great receptions all around!

I’m hesitant to rate it just yet, but I am a tad frustrated. I am wondering if when you said “Coconut cream” you mean full-fat coconut milk? I bought two cans of legit “coconut cream” from Trader Joe’s and it didn’t whip up a bit. This was supposed to be a birthday dessert and now I am just winging it. I still did the other ingredients, but the consistency doesn’t look as it is supposed to. I thankfully had coconut milk in my pantry that I am chilling in hopes of saving the top layer, but overall, this is not coming together as I thought it would. I can edit my comment after the party, but I am a bit frustrated that I followed the directions to a T and it still didn’t work. I am surprised no one else has had this problem?

Hi Nicole, it’s definitely coconut cream that we use to make whipped coconut cream, though coconut milk can also work in a pinch, but usually not as well. However, it is a fact that different brands can have vastly different results. Some just don’t work as well as others.
Great recipe. I made this today and we all loved it. A very rich dessert, but that just makes it so much more delicious!

This is SO, SO good!
I’m new to being vegan and the transition hasn’t been too hard, EXCEPT that I love love love to make desserts. This one is a winner! Thank you so much for taking the time to post this (not to mention giving such thorough instructions).
Merry Christmas!!
Thanks Tasha! Hope you had a lovely Christmas. 🙂
Oh my goodness, this recipe is AMAZING! I made it to serve for Christmas desert and it was a big hit. I’m the only vegan in the family but everyone is always willing to try my cooking and nobody could even tell this was vegan. We will be spending the rest of the day in a sugar coma :).

Awesome! Thanks Hannah! 🙂
Can you use SoDelicious pre-made coconut cream?!
Hi Carrie, I’m not familiar with that product, does it whip? If it whips for whipped cream then it should work fine, if not, then it wouldn’t work here. All the best! 🙂
Thanks for your response! I just realized my question wasn’t very clear.. it’s a pre-whipped Coconut cream (like cool whip).. I’ll give it a try and post results in case anyone else stocks up when it’s on sale too! 😊
Okay great! That will be awesome if you let us know how it works out. All the best! 🙂
Does the coconut cream flavor come through at all? My husband is dairy free, loves peanut butter, but hates the taste of coconut. I would love to make this for him. Thanks!
I don’t think it does, but if someone hates coconut they may still detect it. You could use a different dairy free cream that whips well in place of coconut if you have something available.
Making this pie next week! One question…you use natural peanut butter, right? Just want to make sure.
Hi Nicole, I didn’t use natural peanut butter, I used a commercial brand of smooth, creamy peanut butter.
This was delicious. I used swerve powdered sugar and nondairy coconut whip cream. I will definitely make this again! Thanks for sharing.

Great! So glad it worked out. Thanks for the wonderful review. 🙂
Can you tell me hou much coconut cream you need?
The recipe calls for 400g cans, but I need to know the amount or weight of the coconut cream itself. To be sure I put the correct amounts.
Thanks 🙂
Hi Tomer, the amounts can be slightly different because it will depend on how much ‘cream’ you have in a can and how much water that you discard. The recipe will still work even if you get a little more or a little less. Usually the ‘cream’ part would equal at least a cup or a little more.
Fantastic recipe. I did add vanilla to the filling and topped it with fresh raspberries.
★★★★★
Sounds awesome! Thanks for sharing and the great review Gail. 🙂
Do you remove the cream from the Oreos before adding them to the food processor?
Hi Chloe, no you just throw the oreos whole into the food processor.
How long do you keep it in the freezer to set before transferring it to the fridge?
Just until it feels firm to the touch. So it depends, probably about an hour but keep a check on it. 🙂
Do you keep this in the fridge or the freezer in between servings? Thank you!
The fridge is fine. 🙂
I’ve been making peanut butter pies since the 80’s & I’m bringing this to a Vegan Thanksgiving Dinner tomorrow. It looks like a great recipe. My only variations are using crunchy peanut butter and Swerve instead of powdered sugar.
Thank you for sharing & have a great Thanksgiving!
Awesome! Hope it comes out great! Happy Thanksgiving. 🙂
