Made with a sweet and creamy combination of whipped topping, sweetened condensed milk, mandarin oranges, and crushed pineapple pieces in a graham cracker crust, this mandarin orange pie recipe screams summer and couldn’t be easier to make.

Those of you familiar with the second recipe I ever posted on Southern Plate know how much I love my Mama’s mandarin orange cake. It’s so light and refreshing and the little bits of mandarin oranges taste just like sunshine. This pie combines all the flavors in the mandarin orange icing into the wonders of a pie.

The cool thing about it (well, other than the fact that it really is “cool”) is that the recipe makes two and you store them in the freezer. So you can have one for dessert and save the other one for unexpected company or little treats as you need them. Summer is prime time for drop-ins and I don’t know anyone in my neck of the woods who isn’t looking for something cool, light, and refreshing in the middle of a sunny day.

Another cool thing about my mandarin orange pie recipe is that it couldn’t be easier to make. You only need five ingredients: lemon juice, whipped topping, sweetened condensed milk, crushed pineapple, and mandarin oranges. You simply mix the ingredients together and then pour the pie filling into the two graham cracker crusts. That’s it! After they freeze you’re ready to serve them to family and friends. 

This no-bake mandarin orange pie is light, creamy, fruity, and refreshing all at once. After one bite I bet you’ll understand why it’s a favorite, so let’s get mixing!

If you don’t get a good taste of that sweetened condensed milk then I’m gonna disown ya here and now.

I love that stuff. Any recipe that has it in there is bound to be good.

Mix ingredients together.

Mix that up until nice and creamy.

Don’t blink, we’re almost done.

Add mandarin oranges and pineapple chunks.

Drain your mandarin oranges and pineapple and toss them in.

Don’t worry about a little bit of liquid left in there. I know crushed pineapple tends to want to hang onto the juice a bit so no sense in arguing with it. It’ll be fine.

Mix ingredients together.

Now stir that up really well with a spoon, it won’t take much.

Recipe Notes

You can definitely make a homemade graham cracker pie crust if you like, but I just used store-bought pie crusts. Another option is to use a simple shortbread crust, whether it’s store-bought or homemade.

    I woke up Wednesday morning, May 25th with that Morning Prayer in my head. And I even remembered to write it down before I forgot it! LOVE this pie. **ahem** I almost hate to tell y’all this, but, uhmmmm, use a can of cream of coconut instead of sweetened condensed milk and it’s an AMBROSIA pie!!! One of those things kind of invented out of necessity when the sweet cond. milk wasn’t in the pantry but the cream of coconut was… It’s delish!!!

  4. Dear Christy,
    Could I use something else besides pineapple – it’s the only thing in the world that I can’t eat?

  5. Love this one! But Christy, you know me….I’m gonna add somethin’……gonna throw in some sweetened coconut and pecans pieces….just cuz I can!!!!! LOL! ~hugs~
