Ingredients
Here are the ingredients you'll need to make this delicious gluten-free chocolate pie:
- 1 1/2 cups gluten-free graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 large eggs, beaten
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Make sure to choose gluten-free graham crackers for the crust. Many popular brands offer gluten-free options that can be found at your local grocery store.
Instructions
Now that you have all your ingredients, it's time to get baking! Here are the instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and salt until well combined.
- Press the mixture into a 9-inch pie dish, using your fingers to press it evenly into the bottom and up the sides.
- Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove it from the oven and set it aside.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it starts to simmer. Remove it from the heat and add the chocolate chips, stirring until they are completely melted and smooth.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs and vanilla extract.
- Slowly pour the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into the pie crust and smooth it out with a spatula.
- Bake the pie for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then, refrigerate it for at least 2 hours before serving.
That's it! Your gluten-free chocolate pie with graham cracker crust is now ready to serve.

If you want to mix things up a bit, here are some variations you can try:
- Use white chocolate chips instead of semisweet chocolate chips for a sweeter pie.
- Add chopped nuts or dried fruit to the filling for some extra texture.
- Drizzle caramel or fudge sauce over the top of the pie before serving.
