Paula Deen's Apple Pie

Paula Deen's Apple Pie | Best Pies for Thanksgiving

Not just any apple pie, but Paula Deen's Apple Pie. You KNOW it's good if the queen of the kitchen is baking. I love using a tart apple, like Granny Smith, in my apple pies to balance out the sweetness of the pie filling.

Blueberry Pie

Blueberry Pie | Best Thanksgiving Pies

Who wants a mouth full of blue-stained teeth? I sure do if it means eating some of this delicious, homemade blueberry pie. 5 cups of juicy sweet blueberries get wrapped in flaky, buttery pastry and baked to heavenly perfection. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a memorable treat. This recipe includes a crumble crust option if you would prefer it over the pastry.

Pumpkin Pie

Pumpkin Pie | Best Thanksgiving Pies

If we're talking about traditional pies for Thanksgiving we have to include a pumpkin pie! Pumpkin pie is a relatively easy pie to make, and you can make it even easier by subbing canned pumpkin for fresh pumpkin.

Butterscotch Pie

Butterscotch Pie | Best Pies for Thanksgiving

Butterscotch pie has a delightfully smooth texture and is very similar to Dulce de Leche. This is one of our favorite pies for fall because it's unexpected but still fits the tone of Thanksgiving.

As a bonus, I'm including the best pie crust recipe I have ever found! I get so many compliments when I use this crust and it's the most buttery, flaky crust you could ever hope for. This recipe calls for a food processor, but I love the process and the final product of using a pastry blender instead.
