Gourds of some kind were likely served at the first Thanksgiving, as pumpkins and squash were eaten frequently in the 1600s. However, they didn't have access to butter, sugar, and other sweet ingredients to turn the pumpkins into dessert—which means there was no pie.

Combining two iconic Thanksgiving flavors (pumpkin pie and sugared cranberry), these tart-like cookies will be the star of your holiday dessert spread.

To give the pie filling a light, airy quality, Julia has you separate the eggs and fold in whipped egg whites just before baking. That, plus starting on a hot oven and cranking it down periodically, gives the pumpkin pie a dreamy texture. It is indeed fluffy, but still creamy and satisfying. It’s the perfect foil for a crisp, flaky crust.

From chocolate cream pie and cobbler to apple crisp, these easy and delicious desserts are great for Thanksgiving.

People who love to bake know that what they whip up in the kitchen is only as good as the ingredients they put into it. Reach for baking powder beyond its expiration date or substitute buttermilk for milk and lemon juice, and you're unlikely to end up with a bake that would be on the receiving end of a Paul Hollywood handshake.

Gluten-free baking can be tricky, but this recipe is a Certified Keeper. Enjoy the flavors of fall in this easy GF pumpkin bread!
