"Let's talk about some other delicious options that still capture some of those fall flavors, without falling back on the same old pumpkin. We fully believe that we have something here for everyone here, whether you're looking to bring an old-fashioned favorite back into the spotlight or a creative new take on flavors like cranberry, maple-pecan, or banoffee. Will your weird uncle or overbearing aunt be upset if you skip the pumpkin? Probably, but honestly, that's just kind of a bonus. You're welcome!"
"Does Thanksgiving feel overwhelming, and like it's just too much work for too little reward? We've got you covered with this super simple pie recipe that has only three ingredients, and we're not joking. There's puff pastry sheets, cinnamon, and canned plums - and that's it. You'll wrap the plums inside the puff pastry sheets, and that's where the rustic part comes in. It doesn't have to be perfect at all, and it will be incredibly easy. Add some ice cream, and there's dessert sorted!"
Pumpkin pie has appeared at Thanksgiving dinners since the late 18th century and remains a polarizing tradition. Widespread fall pumpkin-spice burnout makes skipping pumpkin pie acceptable. Alternative desserts can capture autumn flavors while offering variety, including cranberry, maple-pecan, banoffee, and rustic plum. The rustic plum pie requires only puff pastry sheets, cinnamon, and canned plums; the plums are wrapped in pastry, producing an imperfect, easy-to-make dessert that pairs well with ice cream. Skipping pumpkin may upset some relatives, but serving a fresh fall-flavored pie preserves seasonal taste without relying on pumpkin.
