No Bake Banana Caramel Pecan Pie
It is summer time and it is HOT here in Utah. The last thing that I want to do is turn the oven on. That is why I absolutely love no bake pies in the summertime! A cool and creamy pie at a potluck is one of my favorite things to bring!
This is my first year working with Fisher Nuts. It was a no-brainer for me because I choose them every single time in the grocery store! Fisher nuts are fresh out of their shells, have no preservatives and are non-GMO Project Verified. I absolutely love the stand-up bag and that it is resealable so that the nuts can stay fresh longer. I can simply grab them out of the pantry every time that I need to use them.
This no-bake pie is incredible. It starts with a shortbread crust. Then it gets layered with caramel. The banana filling has fresh chopped bananas and crunchy chopped pecans. I like to garnish it with chopped pecans on top to make a beautiful presentation. It is the perfect cool and creamy summer no bake pie and it is going to be the talk of the potluck!

How do I make a no-bake shortbread pie crust?

The Carmel layer was so hard..it could not be cut nor eaten. The filling itself was good… but something is really wrong with the Carmel layer recipe.
Made this and the taste was great. My carmel layer also got pretty hard making it difficult to cut. My banana layer was just a bit softer than I expected but I put in 3 bananas so that may have been the reason. Despite the consistency my husband Loves this pie, we ate it in 1-2 days and he already wants me to make it again. I may use a ready made short bread crust to save time and will have to figure out how to keep the caramel layer softer but the taste is really great.
Note: The recipe above still notes 1 cup milk, the pudding mix, then another 1 cup of milk but I just ignored the second cup of milk as Alyssa noted on 6/19/18.
Very tasty but didn’t hold together at all. The caramel layer hardened and the banana pudding portion slid right off. Very difficult to slice. But again … it was delicious just not pretty.
I am wondering if this can be made the day before or will the bananas turn blackish.
Made this for dinner with my mother-in-law and it was a hit! I had thought about taking the easy route with a pre-made graham cracker crust – but am so glad I did the shortbread crust – so yummy!
I GOING 2 MAKE UR BANANA/PECANS PIE??
I do love a shortbread crust. All buttery and flakey. The summer heat is upon us so these types of recipes are looking so good right now.
I can’t wait to try this recipe.
In the banana pecan pie, do you use 2 cups milk in the pudding mixture, because the recipe calls for 1 cup milk,pudding then another cup of milk
Thank you for letting me know! I fixed it! It just needs to have 1 cup milk with the pudding. Thank you! XOXO
It still shows 1 cup milk twice. I didn’t read the comments first and made the pie. It didn’t firm up. I would fix your receipt directions or people will continue to make it incorrectly and be disappointed.
Can this pie be frozen?
I haven’t tried it frozen but that is a great idea! Enjoy it now and later! XOXO
Love the slow cooker recipes, so helpful.
Love your recipes, especially the slow cooker, I have now taken it out of its box [ at long last } to try some of your ideas. The Caramel banana Pecan no bake pie also sounds amazing.
