This banana cream pie has an easy cheater crust made with a cake mix. The crispy peanut butter streusel topping adds a depth of flavor that shouldn’t be omitted!
Cake Mix Banana Cream Pie
1 package yellow cake mix (regular size), divided
1 large egg, room temperature, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons butter, softened and divided
1 cup cold 2% milk
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant banana cream pudding mix
1 medium banana, sliced
1 carton (8 ounces) cool whip, thawed and divided
1/3 cup skippy creamy peanut butter
Additional sliced ripe banana- Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9-in. pie plate.
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1-3/4 cups cake mix, egg and 1 tablespoon butter until combined. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until a smooth dough forms.
- Roll out the pie crust to fit the prepared pie plate. Flute the edge of the crust, the generously prick the bottom several times with a fork.
- Bake until golden brown, 12-15 minutes. Cool crust in pan on a wire rack.
- While the crust is baking, whisk the milk and pudding mix together for 2 minutes.
- Fold in banana and half of the whipped topping. Pour the mixture into the cooled crust.
- Top with remaining whipped topping. Refrigerate at least 3 hours
- While the pie is chilling, mix remaining cake mix, peanut butter and remaining butter until the mixture is crumbly. Transfer to a parchment-lined rimmed baking pan. Bake until golden brown, 14-18 minutes, stirring once. Cool completely.
- Just prior to serving, top the pie with additional sliced banana and some of the crumb topping (save additional crumb topping for another use). Yield: 10 servings.
More Hints and Ideas
Working with pastry dough quickly will keep it from becoming too soft or sticky while you are rolling it out and fluting it.
Our family loves the addition of toasted coconut! Stir 1/2 cup into the filling, then top the pie with another 1/2 cup of sweetened coconut flakes.Nutritional Facts (without the coconut)
