A quick and refreshing no-bake peach cream pie featuring a buttery graham cracker crust and a creamy peach filling, perfect for hot summer days.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs (about 10 full sheets)
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled (or canned coconut milk for dairy-free)
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Optional toppings: extra peach slices, mint leaves, light dusting of cinnamon or nutmeg

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and pinch of salt. Pour in melted butter and mix until mixture resembles wet sand and holds together when pressed. Add more melted butter if too dry.
  2. Press crumb mixture firmly and evenly into a 9-inch pie dish or springform pan. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to set.
  3. Toss sliced peaches with lemon juice in a small bowl to prevent browning.
  4. Using an electric mixer, beat chilled heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, whipping until stiff peaks form but cream remains smooth and glossy.
  5. Gently fold half of the peach slices into the whipped cream using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the cream.
  6. Spoon the peach cream filling into the chilled crust and smooth the top. Arrange remaining peach slices on top for garnish.
  7. Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 hours or overnight to let flavors meld and filling set.
  8. Slice and serve chilled. Optionally, pair with vanilla ice cream or drizzle with honey.

Notes

Chill the crust for at least 15 minutes before filling to prevent crumbliness. Use chilled equipment for whipping cream to achieve stiff peaks faster. Gently fold peaches into cream to keep it airy. Over-whipping cream can cause it to turn grainy. For a dairy-free version, substitute heavy cream with canned coconut milk and butter with dairy-free alternatives. Store pie covered in the refrigerator up to 3 days; crust may soften but can be re-crisped under a broiler briefly.
