This is the perfect treat for anyone who isn\u2019t into unctuous, cloyingly sweet baked goods and, instead, finds the beauty in flavor and texture complexity.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Peanut Butter Pretzel Pie<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Pretzel crust:<\/strong> To create crushed pretzels, place the pretzels in a food processor and pulse them until fine crumbs form. A few larger pieces are acceptable and even add a nice texture, but most of the mixture should be a fine crumb. However, don\u2019t overdo it\u2014they become powder.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gelatin:<\/strong> Unflavored gelatin powder is normally found in the baking aisle. I like the Knox brand, but use whatever you prefer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Creamy peanut butter:<\/strong> The peanut butter should be a no-stir creamy peanut butter. Grab a jar of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-peanut-butter\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-peanut-butter\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">best peanut butter<\/a> for a high-quality peanut butter taste. Avoid natural peanut butter, as it may separate the filling.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong> You\u2019ll need butter for two components: the pretzel crust and the peanut butter filling. The butter should be melted for the crust, but the butter for the filling needs to be only softened to room temperature.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cream cheese:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-soften-cream-cheese\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-soften-cream-cheese\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">Soften the cream cheese<\/a> by taking it out of the fridge 30 minutes before starting the recipe. This is a good time to take the butter out too.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Heavy whipping cream:<\/strong> Heavy whipping cream thins the peanut butter filling and helps melt down the chocolate chips for the gorgeous ganache.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Milk chocolate chips:<\/strong> Milk chocolate chips melt with heavy whipping cream to create a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/chocolate-ganache\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/chocolate-ganache\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">chocolate ganache<\/a> for the top of the pie. Feel free to use semisweet or dark chocolate if you prefer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Mix the pretzel crust<\/h3>\n<p>Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. Combine the crushed pretzels and 1\/3 cup sugar with the melted butter. Using the bottom of a glass or a measuring cup, press the pretzel mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-inch deep-dish pie plate.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/em> Avoid packing down the pretzel mixture with the glass or measuring cup. Packing will make it almost impossible to cut through when serving. Instead, lightly press the mixture into the mold.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Bake the crust<\/h3>\n<p>Bake the pretzel crust until it\u2019s set and lightly golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.

Fans of crunchy peanut butter can reach for a jar of that too!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Go nut-free:<\/strong> It\u2019s super easy to make our peanut butter pretzel pie recipe nut-free. Sunflower seed butter is a great alternative to peanut butter.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make it gluten-free:<\/strong> Avoiding gluten? Simply use gluten-free pretzels in place of regular ones. Also, double-check all packaged ingredients to ensure they\u2019re gluten-free. Even naturally gluten-free foods may have been processed in a facility that handles wheat or gluten. Depending on the severity of the allergy, you\u2019ll need to check that.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add toppings:<\/strong> Have fun here! Sprinkle the top with finishing salt like Maldon, or swoosh clouds of Cool Whip on top. Arrange pretzels, peanut butter-stuffed pretzels or mini Reese\u2019s peanut butter cups all over. Or, drizzle the pie with melted peanut butter, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/dulce-de-leche-recipe\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/dulce-de-leche-recipe\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">dulce de leche<\/a> or caramel.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Peanut Butter Pretzel Pie<\/h2>\n<p>Store pretzel-crusted peanut butter pie covered tightly with storage wrap. If there\u2019s only a little bit of pie left, store slices in an airtight container to save room in the fridge. It can last in the fridge for up to two days. Keep in mind, though, that the crust will become soggy the longer it sits.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make peanut butter pretzel pie ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can make peanut butter pie with pretzel crust ahead of time, but only by a day at most. As the pie sits, the pretzel crust gets soggy, so it\u2019s best eaten fresh. However, if you\u2019re really pressed for time, make it the night before or morning of serving.<\/p>\n<h2>Peanut Butter Pretzel Pie Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2139430\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Easy-Peanut-Butter-Pretzel-Pie_TOHVP25_1995533_MF_04_08_2.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Easy Peanut Butter Pretzel Pie \" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Why are there bits of stringy gelatin in my pie?<\/h3>\n<p>There will be bits of stringy gelatin in the peanut butter filling if you did not melt the gelatin all the way. The gelatin must be completely melted and homogenous before it\u2019s stirred into the peanut butter.<\/p>\n<h3>Why is my pretzel crust falling?<\/h3>\n<p>Your pretzel crust may fall if the pretzels are too ground up or not ground up enough. They should be ground finely, but a <em>few<\/em> large pieces are OK for texture. Also, make sure the pretzel crust is baked until it\u2019s slightly crisped and browned.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the best pie dish for peanut butter pretzel pie?<\/h3>\n<p>Use a deep-dish 9-inch pie pan for a peanut butter pretzel pie recipe. It\u2019s important that the pie pan is deep dish, otherwise the pretzel crust will take up too much room and there will be hardly any space for the peanut butter filling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our peanut butter pretzel pie tastes as if a chocolate-peanut butter cup baked itself into a crunchy pretzel

The recipe could be better written - list each layer's ingredients separately and make each individual step a separate number, not just a step for each layer. Also, the ingredients for the pie crust are too much. I have the exact same pie plate as pictured and the crust filled the plate to the point that there was very little room for the filling. Try cutting back on the pretzels to 2 cups (sugar to 3 Tbsp and butter to 1\/2 cup). Less crust will also help prevent the sides from falling down. <\/p><p>Now for the missing details that will make it easier for novice cooks to follow the recipe:<\/p><p>You want the pretzel pieces broken up, but not completely powdered. Put in a bag and crush with a rolling pin or pulse a few times in a food processor.  Some chunks, some powder.<\/p><p>My microwave took 20 seconds to fully melt the gelatin. It should be a liquid without any chunks. Fully mix into pie filling - it is okay to continue to use your mixer for this. <\/p><p>Chill the pie before putting the ganache on it. That will make it easier to spread without mixing with the peanutbutter layer. Melting the chocolate chips for the ganache shouldn't take more than 30 seconds in the microwave. Do not overheat. I put both the chocolate chips and cold cream in the microwave. It will be chunky, just stir until the chocolate melts then spread.<\/p><p>Let it set for an hour or two before serving to soften the crust for cutting. It'll still be crispy.<\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":3,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2022-03-26","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"mlletourneau"},"reviewBody":"I have made this pie several times with great success.

You just need to make sure you are reading vthe recipe correctly and take your time. My crust turned out, didn't fall, wasn't oily. The peanut butter layer was very tasty, kinda rich. But the whole pie together was wonderful, tasted like a Reese's. My only complaint is that my crust was a little extra crispy crunchy when I went to eat a slice so maybe I baked it a little long, I think I baked it for 13 minutes. Overall great recipe!

If the word \"easy\" is in the title, this means novice bakers like myself will be more attracted to this recipe. As such, the details in this recipe are VERY vague. There are lots of problems which actually come  up when trying to follow this recipe that are not addressed. 1) The crust does not work. As soon as you put the crust in the oven to bake, it melts down to the bottom of the pie pan and does not stay around the sides. NO help from the recipe as to how they managed to avoid this. 2) They do not explain how to keep the peanut butter mixture from spreading into my ganache mixture as I am spreading the ganache mixture on the pie. I frankly feeling like the picture they have posted is misleading. Not enough detail. Poor pie filling, tastes very bland and more like butter than peanut butter. Less butter, more peanut butter.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":1,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2020-03-16","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"JennaGuinter"},"reviewBody":"Based on the other reviews, I decided to use a graham cracker crust instead of the pretzel crust, and it worked very well. The peanut butter filling was really rich--you couldn't eat more than one piece which wasn't bad. I had no problems with the chocolate top, it spread evenly by itself. I put the pretzels around the top of the pie. Everyone loved it. The instructions are pretty vague, but the result was delicious.
