If Thanksgiving is the Super Bowl of food holidays, pie is the starting quarterback. A T-Day menu is simply incomplete if it doesn’t end with a sweet dessert in flaky, buttery dough, like a pumpkin pie in cinnamon roll pie crust, a puff pastry apple galette or a sea salt butterscotch tart. Here are 60 of my favorite Thanksgiving pie recipes, from tried-and-true classics to unconventional treats that just might become an annual tradition.
These ideas are equal parts festive, seasonal and simple. Even newbie bakers can find plenty that they’ll master on the first try, and most of these pies can be made ahead to boot. Thanksgiving appetizers like stuffed mushrooms and mini cheese balls are perfect for keeping guests satisfied before the main meal. To keep guests happily snacking before the main meal, set out some delicious finger foods that are as easy to enjoy as they are to make. Plus, if you want to keep guests entertained from the start, a few fancy appetizers can make the meal feel extra special. That means you’ll have one less thing to do on the day of the big feast (you’re already busy enough with the turkey and sides, no?).
