I am a big fan of pumpkin, but am looking for ideas for Thanksgiving.
What are your favorite pies?

Love pumpkin pie, but I think my favorite is peach. Non-dessert pie, it's the pork pies my Nan used to make. With these as a medium, she taught the art of carrying food in one's pocket.
For Thanksgiving and Christmas, pecan pie. With a bit of whisky in place of or in addition to the vanilla.
Almost any time - key lime pie. Easiest pie to make and always a crowd pleaser.
I always like sweet potato pie as an alternative to punkin - easy on the "spices".

My favorite is key lime or lemon meringue, but for the holidays I'll normally do a chocolate pie.

Lemon Meringue, Rhubarb, and Huckleberry.
Almost any pie is good pie, except, I don't like Cherry. Cheesecake pies are always good and we just finished a homemade Pumpkin/Cheesecake pie with Pecan crumble crust....that was good.
We always top with REAL Whipped Cream. Not cool whip, not in a can, but real, homemade whipped cream. Makes all the difference in the world.
Warmed up Pecan is nice with a good quality IceCream. Vanilla bean always works but not a 4L tub for $1.39, get the good stuff and treat yourself. Save the 4L tub for Milk Shakes.
Coconut Cream:
Pecan:
Fruit Pizza (not a pie, but close enough)

Pecan, coconut cream, fruit (peach! or others), or custard
Blackberry.
Kick pumpkin pie up a notch with some real maple syrup.
Not sure how, but I had a Maple pumpkin pie at a restaurant once (I worked there) and it was really good.
My two favourites are pumpkin and coconut cream.
A good pecan pie is nice but it's hard to find a good one around these parts.
