Stunning Thanksgiving Dessert Recipes That Aren’t Pie

Everything Thanksgiving: Get all our Thanksgiving recipes, how-to’s and more!

It’s safe to say we’re big fans of pie. We believe that pumpkin, pecan and apple pie should be had in some form come Thanksgiving. But pie isn’t the only Thanksgiving dessert you should be making this year, especially when your holiday cake and tart options look this good.

Since Thanksgiving is a holiday to celebrate bounty of harvest, the best way to honor that is, without a doubt, to make a bounty of desserts — including at least one or two from the choices below. We’ve got luscious layer cakes, gooey custard cakes, spooned desserts and everything else that’s worth saving some extra room for after the big meal. Happy baking!
