Banana Split Pie? I’m in! How good does that sound? And when I started researching recipes I realized the entire process was no bake. Even the crust is no bake, that is amazing to me! The recipe doesn’t contain ice cream, but really tastes like a banana split when you eat it. I made mine in two small 6x6x2 corning dishes but no worries if you don’t have those sized dishes in your pantry, a standard 9×13 inch dish will work perfectly. This is fantastic and definitely a crowd pleaser! If you need a non-traditional dessert idea for Christmas, here you go! Everyone will love it!

How To Make no bake banana split pie

  • Step 1
    **Topping Ideas: Nuts, Maraschino Cherries, Chocolate Sauce, Strawberries, Caramel Sauce, Sprinkles Combine the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter and toss until the graham crackers are fully coated. Press into the bottom of an 9×13 in dish (or two smaller serving dishes).
  • Step 2
    Next add the butter and powdered sugar to an electric mixer and cream until smooth. Add the two eggs and vanilla and beat for at least 6 minutes until the mixture is thick and smooth.
  • Step 3
    Gently spread the buttercream mixture over the graham cracker crust.

    Completely drain the diced pineapple and slice your bananas long ways. Gently press the bananas into the butter cream, and top with the diced pineapple.
  • Step 5
    Spread the whipped cream over the fruit and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. (I topped mine with maraschino cherries, pecans, Hershey’s chocolate sauce and sprinkles.) Enjoy!!
