PIE! Who doesn’t look forward to the pie at Thanksgiving?! Well we sure do!  And these are the ones that make us salivate come Thursday of next week.

1. AK-Cherry Pie-So I know all of you will probably be like what?! That’s not a Thanksgiving pie!  Well see, the thing is, I’m not an all pie loving kind of person.  I like two kinds of pie, cherry and apple.  And to make things worse, I’m a crust snob.  I only like pie that has been made with homemade crust. So generally my mother, the queen of pie making, will make me a cherry pie at Thanksgiving and at Christmas and this is the only time of year I have pie.  Then she makes pecan pie or pumpkin pie for the rest of the fam.
2. Sarah-Buttermilk Pie-Like, AK, this is not your “typical” Thanksgiving pie; however, it’s the only dessert I look forward to during the holidays! (I’m more of a stuffing and mashed potato’s girl.) My MIL makes the BEST buttermilk pie I’ve ever had, and you can bet your a$# I will be fighting for multiple pieces of this bad boy on November 25.
3. Court-Cheesecake-This is definitely not even your typical pie, much less, Thanksgiving pie.  However; to clarify or even possibly to start a debate (bring it) a pie is anything with a crust and filling, so cheesecake is really in the pie family 🙂  Anywho, Ben’s Dad makes the best homemade plain cheesecake for many special occasions that have included Thanksgiving.  LOVE IT.
4. Der-Dutch Apple Pie-My favorite pie, Thanksgiving or not, is hands down Dutch apple pie. The brown sugary crumbly topping is Heaven on Earth I tell ya.
