Thanksgiving is more than just a celebration of food—it's a time for gratitude, gathering with loved ones, and indulging in some seriously delicious desserts. While turkey and stuffing often take center stage at the table, it’s the desserts that leave everyone with sweet memories. Whether you’re a fan of classic pies, or looking to shake things up with something new, here are some of the best Thanksgiving desserts that are sure to impress your guests.

Sweet Apple Crisp

For those who prefer something a little lighter, but still bursting with flavor, apple crisp is the way to go. Tart apples tossed with cinnamon, sugar, and lemon juice create a filling that’s then topped with a buttery, crispy oat topping. It’s comfort food at its finest. The bonus? It’s easy to make and can be prepped ahead of time.

Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra indulgent touch.

Greyston Bakery Brownie Trifle

Want to take those Greyston Bakery brownies to the next level? Turn them into a sweet and stunning brownie trifle. Cut Brownies into pieces, layer brownies with cream, chocolate pudding, and fresh berries in a large glass bowl to create a visually stunning and decadent dessert. Not only is this dessert easy to assemble, but it also offers a perfect combination of textures — and you can choose your flavor with brownie varieties that include  Espresso, Cherry and classic Fudge, as well as Vegan Fudge. 

Delightful Maple Cheesecake

Maple cheesecake offers a creamy and decadent alternative to traditional pies. The rich, velvety texture of the cheesecake is perfectly complemented by the sweet, earthy flavor of maple syrup. Top it with candied pecans or a drizzle of maple caramel sauce for an extra layer of indulgence.

This dessert is especially great for those who want something rich but prefer a break from the spice-forward pies.

Spiced Pear Tart

Elegant and sophisticated, experience the spiced pear tart. Thinly sliced pears arranged in a fan atop a buttery pastry crust create a dessert that looks as beautiful as it tastes. The pears are lightly spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg, creating a warm and comforting flavor.

Pair it with a dash of confectioners sugar, and you’ve got a dessert that feels fancy but is surprisingly easy to make.

Maple Pecan Pie Truffles

For a bite-sized twist on a classic, maple pecan pie truffles are the perfect combination of pecan pie’s gooey filling and maple syrup’s deep sweetness. These truffles are made by blending pecans, brown sugar, and maple syrup, then rolling the mixture into balls and coating them in melted dark chocolate.

Not only are they easy to make and serve, but they also make great gifts for guests to take home. A fun alternative to a whole pie, these truffles pack all the flavor of pecan pie into a convenient, poppable treat.

Whether you're a pie traditionalist or looking to experiment with new flavors, Thanksgiving desserts offer endless possibilities to end your holiday feast on a high note. From an apple crisp to the delightful surprise of maple pecan pie truffles, these desserts are sure to satisfy every sweet tooth at the table.
