Thanksgiving Pies

Join us for a hands-on Thanksgiving pie class where you'll learn to bake three stunning holiday pies from scratch! For those who embrace traditional crowd pleasers, we’ll learn how to make a Classic Apple Pie, featuring tart-sweet apples, warm spices, and a double crust. Next, is a cozy twist on pumpkin pie: Honey Nut Squash with Sugar-Roasted Pepitas. Lastly, we will make a decadent Chocolate Bourbon Pecan pie for those looking for a rich and indulgent dessert. 

This class focuses on essential pie-making techniques, including how to make a perfectly flaky all-butter crust, par-bake for crisp bottoms, and create rich, flavorful fillings using fresh, seasonal ingredients — including homemade squash purée. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, you'll leave with the confidence to tackle holiday baking and impress your guests. Come ready to roll, fill, and bake your way to pie perfection!
