3 Daring Desserts for Thanksgiving

November 5, 2011

We all love the classic Thanksgiving desserts, what I like to call the trio of pies: pumpkin, apple, and pecan.  This year, I implore you to change things up and bake something your family and friends have never tasted before.  These three dynamite pie recipes are just the ticket.  You never know, you might just find a new favorite.

Spicy Pumpkin Pecan Caramel Pie
All the delicious flavors of holiday pies wrapped up all into one.

Cranberry Apple Pie
This pie is a great way to highlight two of fall's best ingredients.

Kabocha Squash Cheesecake with Toasted Coconut Crust
Kabocha squash is popular in Japanese cooking.  It has a similar flavor to pumpkin or butternut squash.  It mild sweetness pairs perfectly with the tropically -inspired crust.
