If you are looking for a sure-fire way to make your party a hit, you’ve come to the right place. These pies are the ultimate Christmas treat!
1. Mincemeat Pie
Mincemeat or mince pie is a savory pie hailing from across the pond. It’s a traditional British pie served during the holidays. The buttery and flaky crust is filled with a mix of dried fruits and spices and baked to golden perfection. I’d gladly eat this pie even if it weren’t Christmas. Fun fact: mince pie goes all the way back to the 13th century, during the time of the Crusaders. Originally called Christmas pies, they were shaped into ovals to represent the manger that Jesus was born in. A depiction of the baby Jesus was also placed on top of the pie. The filling – a combination of mixed meats, fruits, and spices – represented the gifts Jesus received from the three Magi. Centuries later, the pies have gotten smaller, rounder, and sweeter.
2. Pumpkin Pie
If you’re craving a sweet autumn treat, this pumpkin pie is all you need. This pie is proof that nothing beats the classics. Rich and custardy with a perfect balance of flavors: that’s what you can expect from this pumpkin pie, and more. The combination of sweet pumpkin puree, ground cinnamon, cloves, and ginger gives such a heartwarming and soul-soothing experience. Plus, this recipe is insanely easy to make. You need not make the crust from scratch. Store-bought is absolutely fine!
3. Pecan Pie
If you’re looking for the perfect pecan pie recipe, look no further. This is a winner right here! The crisp crust with an ooey-gooey filling and a toasty pecan topping is just heavenly. You’ll be surprised at how a simple mixture of sugar, salt, cinnamon, and vanilla creates such complex flavors that complement beautifully with pecans. This pie also has the flakiest and most buttery crust ever! And that’s no exaggeration. If you’re making pie, you might as well go through the extra effort of whipping up the crust from scratch. Trust me, it’s worth it.
4. Candy Cane Pie
Candy cane is perhaps the most Christmas-y candy there is, so it only makes sense to serve this pie during the holidays! This peppermint pie is a certified crowd-pleaser. How can anyone resist?

6. German Chocolate Pie
German chocolate pie is every chocolate lover’s dream. Think of it as a hybrid of German chocolate brownie and chocolate pie. A rich, chewy, and ooey-gooey filling is loaded with toasted pecans and chocolate in a golden crust. I really couldn’t ask for more. Here’s a fun tidbit: German chocolate cake doesn’t have any German roots at all. Rather, it was created by an American chocolate maker named Samuel German. So don’t be fooled by its name. This dessert is 100% American.
