WHAT IS A BUTTER PECAN BANANA CREAM PIE?
Creamy Banana Pecan Pie is a must-make recipe for your next special occasion. The perfect pie for the holidays! I like pecans, but have always felt like pecan pie is just a little bit too pecan-ish for me. And banana pie is always a great idea as well, but it’s so much better with a little crunch and the flavor of the pecans.
You do have to bake the crust, but it is one of the easiest pie crusts ever! All you need is flour, butter and finely chopped pecans. Once the crust is baked, the rest of the pie is completely no-bake and comes together in just a few minutes. Easy pie recipe that will have all of your guests begging for seconds!

INGREDIENTS IN BUTTER PECAN BANANA CREAM PIE
(This section includes ingredient notes and substitution options. Get all measurements, ingredients, and instructions in the printable recipe card at the Next Page of this post)
Flour – Regular all-purpose flour works wonderfully for making the crust.
Butter -Real butter works best and it definitely needs to be softened to room temperature. Can’t have a pie crust without some type of fat to hold it all together. And make it taste amazing too!
Pecans – You want these to be finely chopped. Pecans are pretty soft, so you should be able to easily chop them with a knife or chopper, but you can also smash them with a mallet. You can use a blender or a food processor, but you probably only need to pulse it a few times. You don’t want the pecans to turn into flour!
Cream cheese – Any variety will work. You can use regular cream cheese, or a low-fat or non fat version. Just make sure to soften the cream cheese before adding to the mixture so that it will mix smoothly.
Powdered sugar – Easier to just buy powdered sugar, but if you are out, you can make your own in a pinch. Just place regular granulated sugar in a blender and blend until it looks like powdered sugar!
Cool Whip – 8 oz. container of non-dairy whipped topping, regular or non-fat. Can use stabilized whipped cream instead (directions below).
Bananas – Barely ripe bananas work best. You want them to be firm, but not too green either! The recipe calls for 3 large bananas, but you can use 4-5 small ones too!
Instant vanilla pudding mix – Just one small box. You can use sugar-free if you’d like, but I prefer the regular kind. If you want a stronger banana flavor, you can use instant banana pudding instead.
Milk – I use 2% because that’s what I have, but you can swap in pretty much any variety of milk. 1%, skim, almond milk, soy milk, whole milk….it all works fine!
