Pin ItNo-Bake Eggnog Pie
For our Thanksgiving menu, I decided that I want to try an Eggnog Pie this year. And while doing my grocery shopping last week, I noticed my favorite brand of eggnog was out! I try to keep an eye out for it at this time of the year because it’s the best! I had to pick up two containers, one to drink and the other to make this No-Bake Eggnog Pie!
The test run of this Eggnog Pie was so good that I had to make it again to share with y’all, and I may just make it another time or two before the end of the year! I think I need more eggnog!
Did you know that you can freeze eggnog for up to 6 months?! So I may need to get a 6-month supply! 😉
If you’re looking for a quick and easy pie recipe that you can serve your family (and guests!) that doesn’t require you to turn the oven on and tastes just like the holidays, you’ve found your new favorite recipe. This recipe is like eggnog in pie form without any baking! What a dream!
Be sure to break this recipe out around the holidays … or if you’re like me, secretly store a lot of eggnog and make it all year round! Enjoy!
No Bake Eggnog Pie: Ingredients & Substitutions
For this No Bake Eggnog Pie recipe, you will need …
Ingredients
- vanilla pudding mix and eggnog – you’ll beat these two together to make the base of your pie filling.
- whipped topping – this goes into your filling as well, making it nice and fluffy! You’ll want some additional whipped topping to go on your pie at the end, too. This can be store-bought (you can use Cool Whip, for example) or homemade.
- graham cracker pie crust – the tasty, tasty crust for your Eggnog Pie. Self-explanatory!
- ground nutmeg – a sprinkle of nutmeg on top of your Eggnog Pie is heavenly.
No-Bake Eggnog Pie: FAQs
Any kind/brand you like, although make sure it’s full-fat. You won’t get the right consistency or texture if you use low-fat eggnog.
I don’t see why not! Experiment with it, and let me know how it goes!
Oh, absolutely! Keep it away from the kids, but adding brandy or another tasty bit of booze is certainly possible.
Sure! Once again, I don’t see why not. Let me know in the comments how it works out for you because I love filing away this info for later.
Use instant mix for this pie (and any other no-bake pie, really). Don’t use the stovetop “cook and serve” kind.
Like most no-bake pies, it seems like it’ll take a while – my recipe lists 4ish hours. However, only 5-10 minutes of that is actual prep. The rest is patiently waiting for the pie to chill in the fridge! So it’s very low effort.
About 6-8 slices! Perfect for the whole family.
Yes, and the longer you chill the pie, the thicker it will get. Don’t skip this step – it’s important for a no-bake pie!

Ingredients
- 1 box vanilla instant pudding, 3.4 oz
- 1 ¾ cups cold prepared eggnog
- 1 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 1 graham cracker pie crust
- additional frozen whipped topping, thawed, for serving (optional)
- ground nutmeg, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl with a hand-held mixer, beat the pudding mix with eggnog for 2 minutes. The pudding mixture should thicken slightly. Gently fold in 1 cup of whipped topping until just combined. Spoon the mixture into the pie crust.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least four hours.
- To serve, place a dollop of whipped topping and a sprinkle of nutmeg on each serving.
Notes
- Make sure you use full-fat eggnog. You may not get the right consistency or texture if you use low-fat eggnog.
- Make an adult version by adding some brandy or other booze to your pie filling.
- If you prefer a pastry pie crust, you can use that instead. It will need to be blind-baked and cooled before being filled.

I tried it. The flavor was good but the texture was very soft ( not firm as pictured). We froze the rest and enjoyed it that way. I wonder if I had low fat eggnog.
Easy to make and so good! Will make every holiday season!
Try this.. Get a little bit of ginger bread and either place a triangle or small Ginger bread person on top.. It goes SO great with the pie and gives a different bite to enhance (add to) the experience..
I’ve heard of people using the cream cheese instant pudding as well…
