Buttermilk Cornbread

This simple cornbread was designed for making stuffing—it’s easy to cut, not too sweet, and holds together.

Baked French Toast with Pecan Crumble

A sweet, nutty crumble offers the perfect balance to this uniquely prepared French Toast recipe–optimal for serving at a holiday brunch or as dessert to the main meal. (Or a mid-day snack. We won’t tell.)

My Thanksgiving Cornbread-Biscuit Dressing Is Not Stuffing

And, yes, there is a difference.

Skillet Dressing with Cornbread and Biscuits

Toss torn leftover biscuits with cubes of cornbread for a sage-scented holiday side featuring two of the South’s best breads.

Big Easy Pumpkin Beignets

Can't find kefir? Substitute buttermilk or plain yogurt.

A Totally Doable (and Delicious) Thanksgiving Menu for 20–40

The first rule of hosting for 20 or more: let go of the Norman Rockwell turkey-carving moment.

Instant Pot Beef and Sweet Potato Chili

Sweet potatoes almost melt as they cook under pressure in the Instant Pot, lending a silky texture and sweet flavor to this harissa-spiced chili.

Pumpkin-Maple Cheesecake Bars

The creamy flavors of cheesecake meet the fall flavors of pumpkin pie in these indulgent bars.

Turkey for Twenty

Roasting turkey in pieces is a great strategy when cooking for a large crowd. You can buy the turkey already cut up, separate two turkeys yourself, or ask your butcher to do the work for you.

Pecan-Cranberry Galette

This elegant little fall galette is studded with whiskey-soaked cranberries.

Cheesy Corn Spoon Bread

Serve this creamy and garlicky spoonbread hot out of the oven for a cozy cold-weather side.

Turkey for Two With Pan-Sauce Gravy

This easy Thanksgiving breast is just the right amount to serve two with leftovers, or four for dinner.

Ham Hock and White Bean Stew

If you can’t find corona or gigante beans for this stew, use smaller white ones like cannellini. Keep in mind that they’ll cook a lot faster, so give the ham a 30-minute head start.

Spicy Gluten-Free Hush Puppies

Millet and glutinous rice flours form the base of these fried, chicken-studded appetizers.

Old Bay Trout and Succotash

Steam a mixture of corn, green beans, and tomatoes in a foil pouch alongside butterflied trout for an easy one-sheet-pan dinner.

Sheet-Pan Steak Fajitas

Put your broiler to work for sizzling steak fajitas that cook on one sheet pan in just 10 minutes.

Bacon-Latticed Apple Pie

This pie is both sweet and salty, which is my favorite dessert combination. The smoky bacon, mingling with the spiced apples and bourbon crust, is heavenly.
