This pie is totally doing double duty. Not only is it perfect for Pi Day tomorrow but it would be the perfect green dessert for St. Patrick’s Day too. Two holidays taken care of with a sweet, yet light treat. Super important now that we’re gearing up for spring and summer.

I started to tell you all the story of how this pie came about on Wednesday. My main {little} man is always thinking up recipes we should make and this is the newest edition straight out of the mind of Noah. He named it Yogurt Scrunchful Pie. He makes up words on the daily and explained to me that scrunchful means it has to have some crunchy stuff in it. Alrighty then.

I was planning on making this completely no-bake but the dude thought we should bake the crust so that it would be crunchy (don’t forget the scrunchful). Well, with the smooth filling it would be nice to have a bit more texture so we went with it.

Seriously, does he understand that about the palate already or was he just born with it? Either way, he’s pretty awesome in my book. I almost used his name for the title of this post but worried you guys might think I went off the deep end.

I thought about some yummy flavor combinations before we set off to the grocery store for our ingredients but they were all shot down for lime. Oh, the opinions of four year olds. He doesn’t get much control over meals (what do you mean we can’t eat pizza every night of the week?) so we went with his choice this time. And I did manage to talk him into some macerated strawberries on top “to make it fancy.”

The filling consists of yogurt and Cool Whip, that’s it. We went with Greek yogurt and lite Cool Whip to keep it low on calories and sugar but still super refreshing and satisfying. The filling has such a light consistency, even after frozen. I foresee many of these pies in our future. Especially since it’s so easy and can be made ahead of time.

I have literally thought of dozen of flavor combinations that we have to try this summer. Coconut yogurt with unsweetened coconut mixed into the crust. Vanilla yogurt and a few dollops of peanut butter with a chocolate cookie crust. Lemon yogurt with strawberries folded in. Mixed berries. I could go on and on.

And don’t worry, I didn’t leave anyone out of this collaboration. I had my other little assistant at my feet during the photo shoot. And although she has a bad case of the flu, she was still pretty irritated that she didn’t get all.the.pie.right.now. That girl will let you know what’s up.
