Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Heavy whipping cream, cold
• 1 cup Fresh strawberries, sliced
• 2 medium Bananas, sliced
• 0.5 cup Strawberry preserves

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.

Step 2

Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Use the back of a measuring cup to ensure an even thickness. Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes while preparing the filling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and mix to combine.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream on high speed until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, being careful not to deflate the cream.

Step 5

Spread a thin layer of the cream filling over the prepared crust. Arrange the banana slices evenly on top of the filling, followed by a layer of sliced strawberries.

Step 6

Spread the remaining cream filling over the fruit layers, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Warm the strawberry preserves in the microwave for 15-20 seconds until slightly thinned. Drizzle over the top of the pie in a decorative pattern.

Step 8

Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow it to set.

Step 9

Slice and serve chilled. Garnish with additional strawberries or whipped cream, if desired.
