Can I make this pie with almond butter or another nut butter instead?
Yes! Feel free to substitute almond butter, cashew butter or any other nut butter you enjoy. The flavor will change slightly depending on the nut butter used.
Is this pie better with a graham cracker crust or chocolate crust?
While both crusts pair deliciously, I personally love the flavor contrast of the nutty peanut butter filling with a graham cracker crust. However, you can certainly use an Oreo crust, chocolate wafer crust etc.
Can I make this pie in advance?
Absolutely! This pie holds up very well in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Just allow it to soften slightly at room temperature before serving.
How long does unbaked peanut butter pie filling last in the fridge?
