How to Make Our No-Bake Pecan Cream Pie

  1. Prepare the crust.
    Combine chopped pecans, melted butter, sweetener, cinnamon, and salt. Press mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan. Chill while preparing the filling.
  2. Mix the filling.
    In a bowl, beat cream cheese, Greek yogurt, protein powder, sweetener, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Fold in whipped cream.
    Gently fold in whipped cream to keep the filling light and airy.
  4. Assemble the pie.
    Pour filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  5. Chill to set.
    Refrigerate for at least 1–2 hours, or until firm. Top with extra pecans or chocolate shavings before serving.

Storage & Serving Suggestions

  • Store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days in an airtight container.
  • Freezing is possible, but cream texture may soften slightly after thawing.
  • Serve chilled:
    • Pair with a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence
    • Add fresh berries for a light touch

Tips & FAQs

Can I make this nut-free?

Can I use protein powder in the filling?
Absolutely — it keeps the dessert high in protein without affecting flavor.

Is this pie Weight Watchers friendly?
