Though I have previously stated that the best part of a Thanksgiving meal is the plethora of side dishes, I have to confess that, upon further consideration, it has become very clear to me that that statement is simply not true. Because I forgot (I know, what?) about the pie. Of course! The best part of Thanksgiving dinner (or any dinner, should you be so lucky) is the pie. Whether you decide to lean in the direction of traditional (apple pie) or not-so-traditional (lime coconut tart), here are some pie and tart recipes from the Savory Salty Sweet archives that will stoke your dessert fire and get the pie train rolling.
Salted Chocolate Hazelnut Tart:
Sour Cherry Pie—you’ll have to hunt down some frozen sour cherries (which are not terribly easy to find), but the effort will be totally worth it:
Easiest Skillet Fruit Pie–this is a great pie for beginning pie-makers, or for people who are looking for a more casual dessert entry.
Guess what’s gonna be on my Thanksgiving table….many of these!
Gorgeous post! I wish I could make them all. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones, as well!
I think i put on about 5 glorious pounds just reading this post – delicious!
I’m so glad I didn’t see this post until * after * Thanksgiving, otherwise you would have inspired even more pie-making in my kitchen! And I’d already produced two pies for… two people. (Cranberry Apple, and Pumpkin.)
These all look beyond delicious!
Genius pies here. These flavor combos sound amazing! The Salted Chocolate Hazelnut Tart especially is a must try!
Your pies look great! and nicely photographed! You must have had a very tasty ending to your Thanksgiving dinner!
Don’t you wish we could all eat pie for breakfast? The pear pie sounds heavenly, and that is something I can attempt this weekend. Thank you!
