You've probably had hashbrown casserole, but have you tried my loaded hashbrown casserole recipe? My version incorporates bacon, onions, and a few other flavorful add-ins to make this classic side dish even more ridiculously tasty.

These pumpkin pie bars were highly requested over on my YouTube Channel and here on the blog! After a bit of testing (and plenty of taste testers--pumpkin pie is NOT my favorite!), I ended up pairing the crust from my pecan pie bars and the filling from my pumpkin pie recipe. The result? A thick, buttery shortbread-esque crust that holds a nice texture beneath perfectly spiced and creamy pumpkin pie filling. Best served beneath a healthy dollop of homemade whipped cream--yum!

A fall twist on classic dinner rolls, these sweet potato dinner rolls are here just in time for Thanksgiving! They are pillowy soft, unique, yet familiar, and such a treat. Top with rosemary garlic butter to really impress your guests!

My mashed potatoes recipe delivers buttery, velvety-smooth mashed potatoes every time. It strikes the right balance between creamy and fluffy for the *perfect* texture.

I'm sure you've tried pecan pie and maybe even pecan pie bars before, but have you ever had chocolate pecan pie? If I'm being honest (and this will surprise none of you!) this is actually my preferred way to eat pecan pie. It's deeper, perfectly chocolatey, and elevated in the best way. Add a little sea salt on top? Mmm, absolutely amazing!

Inspired by pecan pie, these pecan pie cookies might just be my new favorite fall cookie! Think of them like a pecan pie/shortbread cookie hybrid in handheld form...the cookie bases are like buttery little tart shells, and we'll fill them with a gooey, caramel-like pecan topping. YUM!

Now that the Thanksgiving rush is over, we can finally relax and enjoy one of my favorite post-holiday traditions: leftovers! Around here, we like to repurpose our leftovers into new meals like turkey chili, turkey pot pie, turkey chowder, and new this year, mashed potato pancakes!

Love garlic in your mashed potatoes? Stirring in a clove or two works in a pinch, but if you want true garlic mashed potatoes, you need this recipe! These are so creamy, so flavorful, and so EASY with a fantastic garlic flavor, thanks to garlic-infused butter (no roasting needed!).

While my sausage stuffing will always be my favorite stuffing recipe, I wanted to share this classic stuffing before Thanksgiving snuck up on us. This is a great option for vegetarians (if you use a vegetable broth) or for people who simply prefer to stick with the traditional version.

With Thanksgiving approaching next week (!?), I thought now would be the perfect time to share my new and improved honey wheat rolls with you! They are perfectly fluffy, chewy rolls that are lightly sweetened with honey and made more wholesome with whole wheat flour. We'll finish them off with an extra touch of honey and a sprinkle of oats for a pretty and polished look!

Despite its European origins, apple pie is a staple American dessert. It's served at most holidays (even the 4th of July!), and most always with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top! I've had a Dutch apple pie recipe on my website for a few years now (plus several other apple pie flavored desserts), but I've really been meaning to share this classic, easy apple pie with you.

Fans of my mashed potatoes will love this party-ready loaded mashed potato casserole! It's packed with all the classic add-ins like shredded cheese, bacon, sour cream, and chives. While it's tasty any time of year, we especially love it during the holidays since it can be prepped in advance and is easy to transport./p>]]> https://sugarspunrun.com/loaded-mashed-potato-casserole/feed/ 9 https://sugarspunrun.com/creamed-corn-recipe/ https://sugarspunrun.com/creamed-corn-recipe/#comments Thu, 14 Nov 2024 13:00:00 +0000 https://sugarspunrun.com/?p=71427 My homemade creamed corn recipe tastes SO much better than the canned version.

One of my family's favorite side dishes, today's creamed corn recipe pairs sweet and crisp corn with a creamy sauce. It's quick to make and works well with either fresh or frozen corn.

If you tried and loved my Cool Whip-free ambrosia salad, you need to try this equally from-scratch strawberry pretzel salad. So many of you have asked for this recipe! Personally, I'm not a fan of the traditional version, so I knew I wanted mine to be mostly homemade (the pretzels aren’t). It's just a tiny bit more work, but I love it SO much better than the classic, more artificial version!

What do you usually do with your Thanksgiving turkey leftovers?  Do you pick at them cold from the fridge, like my sister? Do you slap them on bread and have dry turkey sandwiches, like my dad? Or do you revive them by making something totally new, delicious, and cozy, like a turkey pot pie?

Maybe even one of each? That's where this Thanksgiving side dishes recipe roundup comes in handy--I've put all the options in one easy list!

My family requests (demands) I make this sweet potato casserole recipe every year for Thanksgiving. It's a staple side dish on our holiday table, holding its own among its ever-popular peers (green been casserole and sausage stuffing, in our house anyway!).

What do you call them--candied yams or candied sweet potatoes? My family refers to them as yams, even though that's technically not correct (more on this below!). But I have a feeling some of you may call them that too...

Truth be told, this is sausage stuffing is my favorite Thanksgiving side dish (yes, even more than green bean casserole--can you tell I have a hard time choosing though?!). My dad makes this dish every year, and every year I look forward to it!

Did you just run out of poultry seasoning, right in the middle of a recipe? Don't panic, because you can easily make your own! This recipe has saved me so many times when I couldn’t find or didn’t have any seasoning on hand (especially when I'm in the middle of making my turkey chowder!). It's made with just 6 simple spices and takes seconds to whisk together.

If you're making my sausage stuffing for Thanksgiving this year, you're going to need some unseasoned bread cubes. Since I can't always find them in my local grocery store, I thought I'd share my method for making bread cubes for stuffing. It's so easy!

My green bean casserole recipe is like the classic version you grew up with, but better. Made with fresh green beans and a from-scratch mushroom base, my recipe is creamy and rich (but not too rich) with a crisp-crunchy French fried onion topping. It's incredibly satisfying and one of my favorite thanksgiving side dishes!

Take your roasted brussels sprouts to the next level and make maple glazed brussels sprouts! Truly, if anything on my website could be called a flavor bomb, this recipe would be it. These sprouts are lightly sweet with a sticky maple glaze, smokey paprika, and crisp bacon. They are so amazing, I could barely take any photos because everyone just wanted to eat them right off the baking sheet!
