At any point in time, Team Delish is often in the middle of the biggest debate of them all: pie vs. cake. It's a hard one to win, both of the arguments are just so compelling (and go perfectly with whipped cream or ice cream). But for those days you just need a hearty, buttery-crisp slice of pie, we've got you covered with our 60 easy pie recipes that are perfect for any time of the year (especially that holiday dessert table when you really want to pull out all the stops).

Pies are the kind of dessert where they instantly look impressive (even when they took very little time to whip up). Sure, crust can be fussy, but we're sure you'll be a Star Baker once you check out our best pie crust recipe. No matter how you fill it, our quick, easy pie crust is way more buttery than store-bought too (pssst, we've also got a gluten-free pie crust recipe and a keto pie crust recipe, so everyone can dig in). From there, you can fill those crusts up with anything you can dream up, like classic cherry pie followed by apple pie, chocolate pie, coconut cream pie, and lemon meringue pie. (You might even want to make them mini and pull together a, wait for it, pie board.)

When it gets chilly out, there's nothing quite like a warm pecan pie or pumpkin pie, fresh from the oven—though TBH, we bake pies all year long. And for those days you just can't with your oven, we have all the no-bake pies of your dreams too.
If you can't decide between pies, we've mixed all your favorites flavors together for when those indecisive cravings strike. Apple crumble pie, apple pie cheesecake, and even a birthday cake pie are maybe the easiest choices you'll make all week.

A classic pumpkin pie is standard at Thanksgiving dinner, but what to do when there are more diners than slices? Or what if you're more of a crust-lover than filling? These little pies are perfect for people who want just a little treat after the big meal, or if you'd prefer a smattering of desserts, since honestly who can choose between pumpkin and pecan?

Every fall, we turn to this recipe because we think it's, well, pretty perfect. We like to fill our homemade flaky, buttery, lattice crust with a combination of apples for an irresistibly sweet-tart filling. We're being 100% serious when we say this is the BEST apple pie recipe out there.

Chocolate Pie

Though most chocolate pies use an Oreo crust, we went for a buttery flaky crust with just a hint of bittersweet cocoa instead. The filling here is a decadent and foolproof custard made extra easy by being covered in a slightly sour (trust us) whipped cream that will cover any cracks. Top with some shaved chocolate for a richer than rich chocolate pie everyone will love.
