This adorable Turkey Crust Pumpkin Pie is easy to recreate and will amaze your family and friends this holiday season.

Let me show you how easy it is to assemble and bake this fun Thanksgiving holiday treat.

You’re going to love how easy and delicious these apple pie wedges are to make…and eat.
With store-bought or homemade pie crust, apple pie wedges are utterly delicious!!

I developed this easy recipe for Pumpkin Cheesecake Tartlets with a Cookie Crust after I’d rewritten and remade my great grandmother’s recipe for Fence Cake (aka applesauce cake). 

Since the cookie crust for great grandma Patterson’s Fence Cake is ‘almost’ my favorite part of that particular dessert (not that I could choose), I wanted to use it again in another dessert recipe. And this is the story of how these delicious Pumpkin Cheesecake Tartlets with a Cookie Crust were born.

I’m updating this recipe post for my Great Grandma’s Old-Fashioned Applesauce Cake (aka Fence Cake), which I originally published back in June of 2011. The recipe remains the same but the photos are new, and this post now features a printable recipe card feature along with the nutritional information.

I’m going to be perfectly honest with you here (as I always am). This recipe idea for Strawberry Orange Pie Cake is not my own. I saw it in one of my back issues of Food Network Magazine and thought it looked like something I wanted to try. I did, however, adapt the recipe ingredients and also put my own touch on the lattice pie crust topping with those cute little strawberry accents to up the cuteness factor.

I hope all these tips and tricks will help, not hinder, your desire to make this cornucopia crusted pumpkin pie.

They’re not meant to intimidate you, they’re meant to inspire and bring out the food artist within YOU! You can do this!!

Don’t just serve your family and friends homemade pumpkin hand pies! Charm them first with their looks, and then dazzle them with the taste! After being away from the #SundaySupper …

I always have so much fun bringing you fun and whimsical food preparation ideas that are as simple to recreate as they are delicious to eat, and serve.

Now, with the help of video presentation, bringing you the entire process (from start to finish) of the making and assembling of my Easter Bunny Pie I get to be even more interactive with you which makes it double the fun for me, and hopefully for you too!

I’ve been having such fun the past few months playing with pies and crusts that I just can’t seem to stop myself. Not that I actually want to, because they’ve seemed to have struck a chord with people, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. I have several more ideas in mind for decorated pies and crusts, so I hope you’ll stay tuned. But first up is this one for Festive Coconut Banana Custard Pie with a Holly Berry Crust.

When it’s time for dessert, and you want to impress but not spend hours in the kitchen preparing, then these rustic Apple Puff Pastry Squares are just what the dessert …
