Just in time for Thanksgiving, I’m sharing my collection of 100% from scratch pie recipes! I’m even including a few crust options too.
BEST Thanksgiving Pie Recipes
What’s Thanksgiving without a slice of pie? Pretty disappointing, if you ask me! While many people look forward to the turkey or other Thanksgiving side dishes, I’m always eager to dig my fork into as many slices of pie as I can. Today I’m compiling all of my pie recipes into one easy guide–perfect for planning your holiday dessert table!
Out of all the pie recipes on the blog, my absolute favorite is chocolate pie. While I am admittedly a self-proclaimed chocoholic, there’s just something so irresistible about the rich chocolate pudding filling over the buttery pie crust (all 100% homemade, of course!). Everyone who tastes this pie asks for the recipe. Make sure to top it off with some homemade whipped cream if you give it a try!
1. Chocolate Pie
This chocolate pie is one of my most popular pie recipes, and for good reason! The chocolatey, creamy, and rich filling pairs so well with flaky homemade pie crust.

2. Easy Apple Pie
A classic! You will love how easy my recipe is (no precooking the filling or blind baking the crust!).

3. Pecan Pie
Complete with toasty pecans and a slightly gooey, caramelized center, this is pecan pie perfection! I also have a chocolate pecan pie recipe, if you want a chocolatey twist.

4. Key Lime Pie
I tried SO many variations before developing this PERFECT key lime pie recipe! This one was the clear winner. Also, if you love key lime pie give my key lime cake or key lime cheesecake a try!

5. Blueberry Pie
Skip the canned filling and make your own in minutes! I’ll also walk you through the steps for making a beautiful (and surprisingly simple) lattice crust.

6. Banana Cream Pie
This pie has a light vanilla custard base and is so light and refreshing. It’s made with a crisp vanilla wafer crust as an ode to banana pudding.

7. Pumpkin Pie
A Thanksgiving classic! My version is made entirely from scratch and uses a sneaky secret ingredient for a smooth, perfectly sweet filling.

8. Lemon Meringue Pie
Just look at that sky high meringue filling! I use a trick that prevents the meringue from weeping (because nobody wants that!). This is one of my most requested pie recipes!

9. Frozen Mudslide Pie
Inspired by the drink, this pie combines a frozen chocolate filling with Bailey’s whipped cream. This is one of my newest pie recipes, and I can’t wait to hear how you like it!

10. Chocolate Chess Pie
This unique chocolate pie tastes like a fudgy brownie filling on buttery pie crust. It’s incredible!

11. Oreo Pie
A no-bake pie! This Oreo pie is refreshing and satisfying, almost like eating cookies and cream ice cream on an Oreo crust.

12. Coconut Cream Pie
Coconut cream pie might not be a traditional Thanksgiving pie, but I bet it will disappear from your dessert table! This is one of my favorite pie recipes.

13. Lemon Pie
Similar to key lime pie, this lemon pie is smooth and tangy. Top it with as much whipped cream as you like! I also have a lemon tart recipe, if you’d prefer that.

An old-fashioned pie, we sometimes call this “sugar cookie pie” because of its sweet sugary custard taste.

19. Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie

A classic Pennsylvania Dutch pie recipe! This is a “wet bottom” shoofly pie with a gooey filling and crumb topping.

23. Fruit Galette
For those of you who don’t love the structure of pies, this fruit galette is a free-form option. The rustic appearance is part of the charm, so no worry about tidily crimping the crust or making a lattice top! I also have a recipe for mini caramel apple galettes.

I’d love to hear what pie recipes you plan to make this Thanksgiving! At my house, you’ll find my family’s favorites including Dutch apple pie, pumpkin pie (of course!), and coconut cream pie.
Also, if pie isn’t your thing (though I’m not sure why you would have made it this far down the post if that was the case!), check out my post on Thanksgiving Desserts (that aren’t pie!).
Enjoy!

Gasp.. With Thanksgiving days away how could there POSSIBLY be no sweet potato pie recipe [pouts]
Something to work on for next year!
What apple makes the best pie?
Love the recipes,thanks for sharing.
Hi, Elaine! I recommend using a firm, tart apple for apple pie. My personal preference is Granny Smith, which I like using for most of my baked apple recipes. Happy Baking! 🙂
Can these pies be frozen before baking, and if so should they be baked frozen or thawed?
It depends on the particular pie you had in mind.
Some of them indicate in the recipe whether you can freeze or not. Most of the fruit pies can be frozen, while the custard-based ones unfortunately tend to deteriorate after thawing.
I made the buttermilk pie last year and loved it. I think I’ll do the pecan pie this year. Keep up the good work Sam!!
Thank you, Lily, for trying my recipes. I am so glad you enjoyed the pies. 🙂
All your pies look so delicious. For sure for this Thanksgiving I’ll be making the Apple pie for my family. Thank You for sharing so yummy recipes.
You are so welcome, Maria! Thank you for following my blog. I am really glad you enjoy my recipes. I hope your family has a wonderful thanksgiving and they enjoy their pie. 🙂
