Description

This No Bake Pineapple Pie is a refreshing and creamy dessert perfect for warm weather or any time you want a tropical treat without turning on the oven. Made with fresh pineapple, cream cheese, and whipped cream atop a buttery graham cracker crust, this pie combines a luscious, fluffy filling with a crisp base for a delightful balance of textures and flavors. The recipe is straightforward, requires minimal prep, and is ideal for chilling in the fridge or the freezer for an icebox-style dessert.

Ingredients

Filling

  • 1 fresh pineapple (cored and sliced into rings, half diced into small pieces)
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup pineapple juice
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

Whipped Cream Topping

  • 1 (16 ounce) carton heavy whipping cream
  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Crust

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 stick (1/2 cup) salted butter, melted

Garnish (Optional)

  • 5 maraschino cherries

Instructions

  1. Prepare Pineapple: Dice half of the fresh pineapple into small pieces and set aside. Keep at least 4 pineapple rings for decorating the top of the pie later.
  2. Mix Cream Cheese: Using a mixer, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add Pineapple Juice: Pour the pineapple juice into the cream cheese and continue mixing until most lumps are gone and the mixture is fairly smooth.
  4. Incorporate Sweetened Condensed Milk: Fold in the sweetened condensed milk and beat the mixture until it becomes fluffy and well combined.
  5. Fold in Diced Pineapple: Gently fold the diced pineapple pieces into the cream cheese mixture for added texture and flavor.
  6. Chill Filling: Place the filling into the refrigerator to chill while preparing the crust and whipped cream topping.
  7. Make Whipped Cream: Pour the heavy whipping cream into a mixer bowl and beat on high speed for at least 2 minutes until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then continue to beat until the cream is fluffy and holds stiff peaks. Refrigerate until ready to assemble.
  8. Prepare Crust: Combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until evenly mixed. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch deep dish pie plate to form an even crust.
  9. Assemble Pie: Pour the pineapple cream cheese filling into the prepared graham cracker crust. Smooth out the top and refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours to set properly. Alternatively, freeze the pie for a firmer, icebox-style dessert.
  10. Decorate and Serve: Once chilled and set, arrange the reserved pineapple rings on top of the pie. Pipe the whipped cream decoratively around or over the rings and place maraschino cherries on top of the whipped cream as desired. Serve chilled.

Notes

  • For best results, fully chill the pie for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the filling to firm up.
  • You can substitute crushed vanilla wafers for graham cracker crumbs if preferred.
  • Fresh pineapple is recommended for the best flavor, but canned pineapple can be used in a pinch — just drain it well.
  • This pie can be frozen and served as a frozen dessert; allow it to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before slicing.
  • If you prefer a less sweet pie, reduce the amount of powdered sugar or sweetened condensed milk slightly.
