Blueberry Banana Cream Cheese Pie is a yummy dessert! Makes two 8" pies or one 10" pie, with bananas, creamy filling, and blueberry topping.
Preheat oven to 400℉. Fill crusts with parchment paper and dried beans to weigh down crust(s) to prevent air pockets forming.
Bake pie crusts at 400°F. for 11-12 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Transfer to wire racks; cool completely before filling.
Thinly slice 2-3 bananas; line pie crust(s) on bottom and sides with them. Arrange slices in a single layer w/out a lot of space in between. Set pie crusts aside while you make pie filling.
Pie Filling: Place softened cream cheese and sugar in a mixing bowl. Beat very well with electric mixer until fully combined/creamy. Set bowl aside. In a SEPARATE bowl, add Dream Whip powder (2 envelopes), milk and vanilla. Beat very well on high speed until soft peaks form (about 4 minutes). Add cream cheese mixture into Dream Whip. Use an electric mixer to beat well until pie filling is fully combined, smooth and creamy.
MAKING TWO 8" PIES? Divide pie filling equally between 2 cooled pie crusts, spreading it level. Spoon blueberry pie filling over the top of the pies beginning in the CENTER, evenly dividing it between pies. Filling will spread a little as you add it. Decorate as desired.
MAKING ONE BIG 10"-12" PIE? Carefully add pie filling, taking extra care to keep it all IN the crust! The filling will need you to "TAME" it in place as it is added. Use a spatula to pull filling up so it doesn't cover crimped edges of the crust. Filling is thick enough to hold its "shape". Blueberry topping will be enough to cover the entire top of the pie. TIP: Level the top, then use a spatula to slightly "lift and shape" outer edges of the cream filling to form a higher "barrier" to keep the blueberry pie filling IN so it doesn't run over the sides!
Place banana blueberry cream cheese pie(s) in the refrigerator; refrigerate pie(s) for A MINIMUM OF 4 hours to allow filling to set up for easier slicing, then serve and enjoy!
NOTE: The caloric calculation was made based on the ingredients used for two 8" pies (16 slices).
