Sweet Endings with Thanksgiving Pies

Have your chosen your Thanksgiving pie lineup yet? In my estimation, you should have at least a pie per person. Well, maybe that’s going a bit overboard. But when you have so many glorious flavors — from pumpkin and pecan to apple and buttermilk (my family always has cherry) — why pick just one?

Getting Started: The Crust

Pie crust can be daunting even for otherwise experienced bakers. Check out our video tutorial, then get the recipe for Classic Pie Crust:

Hand pies. Some people like taking dessert into the TV room to watch the games so these are easy to-go. Also nice to keep a pile of them in a warm basket for snacking later on. Our favorites are spiced pumpkin and cinnamon blueberry, but you can fill them with anything from chutney to veggies to cheesy things.
