Thanksgiving Pies

Make your favorite classic Thanksgiving pies — pumpkin, apple and pecan — or try a new twist on an old favorite this year.

The Classic: Pumpkin Pie

A homemade crust filled with rich, traditionally spiced pumpkin custard is a highly-anticipated way to end a Thanksgiving feast.

The Twist: Amaretto Pumpkin Pie with Almond Praline

For an update on a favorite, Food Network Kitchens baked amaretto-spiced pumpkin custard in a cookie crust and topped it with sweet, crunchy almond praline.

The Classic: Apple Pie

Fill your home with the scent of hot apple pie and your guests' plates with slices of tart apple filling inside a buttery homemade crust.

The Twist: Apple-Walnut Galette

For a new spin on apple pie, try a galette: a free-form pie that's baked on a baking sheet instead of in a pie plate. This version is sweetened with apricot preserves and stuffed with walnuts.

The Classic: Pecan Pie

Served with whipped cream or ice cream, homemade pecan pie is a quintessential dessert that no Thanksgiving menu should be without.

The Twist: Chocolate-Toffee Pecan Tart

Pecan pie gets a chocolatey makeover with a cocoa crust, and the topping is extra cruncy and sweet, like toffee candy.
