If you’re looking to break out from the old pumpkin pie for dessert at Thanksgiving, here are a few ideas from the TBTAM recipe collection. They all have that autumn-into-winter, fruits of the harvest feel that Thanksgiving is made for, with just a tad of unexpected flavor or texture to jolt your diners’ taste buds out of their turkey-induced stupor.
Apple Torte – This is a great make-ahead dessert that keeps well in the fridge. It’s impressive appearance belies a very easy preparation.
Ginger Stout Cake – Nothing says autumn like a ginger cake, and this is one of the best. It’s what I’m bringing to dinner this year.
Fig & Plum Tartlets – Adapt this tartlet recipe for a large crowd by making one large tart instead. Enough fruit to feel healthy after a heavy meal, with enough sweetness to feel special.
Prune & Almond Tart with Armanac – Another impressive tart that’s easy to make and delicious to eat.
Apple Crumb Tart – Made with a shortbread crust and a breadcrumb topping, this tart is a nice change from the old apple pie.
