Ingredients
  

  • 1 14- to 16-ounce jar creamy peanut butter Use regular shelf-stable peanut butter, not natural peanut butter.
  • 1 9-inch frozen raw pie crust Remove from its pan and break into rough bite-size pieces; do not thaw.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 cups whole milk 2% milk may be used, though the pie will be slightly less rich.
  • 3 large eggs Lightly beaten.

Instructions
 

  • Lightly grease the inside of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker with butter or nonstick spray.
  • Remove the frozen raw pie crust from its foil pan, keeping it mostly frozen, and break it into rough bite-size pieces.
  • Scatter the crust pieces evenly over the bottom of the slow cooker, then spoon the peanut butter over them and gently nudge it around to cover most of the crust.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar and lightly beaten eggs until well combined and slightly thickened, then slowly whisk in the milk until smooth.
  • Pour the milk mixture gently around and over the peanut butter and crust pieces in the slow cooker, and do not stir.
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 3 to 4 hours, until the edges are set, the center is barely jiggly, and a knife inserted near the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
  • Turn off the slow cooker and leave the pie covered for 20 to 30 minutes so it can finish setting.
  • Scoop the warm peanut butter pie into small bowls, making sure each serving includes custard, peanut butter pockets, and tender crust pieces, and top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if desired.

Notes

Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours of cooking in a covered container for up to 3 days. Serve cold or gently reheat individual portions in the microwave until just warmed through.
