Substitutions And Additions

PEACHES: You can substitute thawed frozen peaches or fresh peaches during the peach season for the canned peaches in this easy no-bake peach pie.

CRUST: You can substitute a homemade graham cracker crust for the premade crust in this easy recipe.

You could even substitute a traditional pastry crust if you prefer.

WHIPPED TOPPING: If you prefer a homemade touch, replace the Cool Whip with fresh homemade whipped cream sweetened with a bit of powdered sugar.

PEACH GELATIN: While peach gelatin is the star here, you can experiment with other fruit-flavored gelatin options too.

Try apricot, orange, or raspberry for a unique twist on the classic recipe.

Just make sure the flavor complements the peaches for a harmonious blend.

How To Make This Peach Cool Whip Pie Recipe

This simple recipe uses a store-bought graham crust that is filled with a yummy filling that our step-by-step instructions will show you how to make.

OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS

This creamy peach pie needs to chill in the fridge for about four hours before it is ready to serve.

This is a great recipe to make the day before so that it is ready when you need it.

STEP ONE: Using a medium-sized heat-safe mixing bowl, add the instant peach gelatin.

Pour the boiling water over the gelatin and stir until completely dissolved.

STEP TWO: Sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over half a cup of cold water.

Allow the gelatin to dissolve and “bloom”.

PRO TIP:

Blooming gelatin means allowing it to sit for three to five minutes until it has absorbed the liquid and the powdered granules have dissolved.

The granules will swell as it blooms.

STEP THREE: Pour the bloomed gelatin into the dissolved peach gelatin mixture and combine thoroughly.

STEP FOUR: Fold in two cups of thawed Cool Whip and the chopped peaches.

STEP FIVE: Evenly spread the peach Cool Whip mixture into the pre-made crust. Cover and chill for at least four hours.

PRO TIP:

If your pie crust is in a foil tin, we’d recommend sitting it – foil pan and all – inside a glass pie plate.

This will give it a bit more stability when taking it in and out of the fridge.

STEP SIX: Slice the pie into eight slices. Before serving, garnish with the reserved Cool Whip and a slice of peach for each piece.

Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side, along with a cold glass of sweet peach iced tea to wash it down.

Elevate your peach Cool Whip pie by pairing it with a fresh fruit medley.

Sliced strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries add a burst of color and a complementary tartness to each bite.

Storing This Peaches And Cream Pie

Whether you’re planning to make it ahead of time or you have leftovers, we’ve got you covered.

MAKE AHEAD: If you want to get a head start on dessert, you can prepare your peach Cool Whip pie a day in advance.

Once it’s fully set, cover it gently with plastic wrap or aluminum foil to keep it from absorbing any fridge odors.

It’s best to add any optional toppings, like extra Cool Whip or peach slices, just before serving to maintain that beautiful presentation.

IN THE FRIDGE: Store any leftovers of this easy pie recipe covered in the refrigerator for up to four days.

IN THE FREEZER: Freezing this Cool Whip peach pie is not recommended. When the pie thaws, it will cause the bottom of the pie to become soggy.
