Are you getting your meal plans together for Thanksgiving? How about adding a non-traditional pie to your list! Apple Cranberry Frozen Yogurt Pie with a graham cracker pecan crust!
This adds all of those tradition flavors into one dessert!
Every year for Thanksgiving I always try to add something nontraditional to our menu. Why do I do this? So I can experiment with other recipes and flavors that I probably would not normally go out and use or eat. This year, when I received some pie fillings from Lucky Leaf I decided to change up a frozen yogurt pie I make.
I made this amazing pie crust to go with the pie that includes pecans. Seriously best pie crust ever! With the pie I combined the yogurt, whipped topping, Lucky Leaf’s apple cranberry pie filling and then froze it! This is definitely something that you can make ahead of time and takes some pressure off as we scream “how will I get everything done!”
Now GUESS WHAT! Lucky Leaf is having a contest and they want your best recipes using their pie fillings! And you know what, they are going to help you by allowing me to giveaway some pie filling to help you get started! Make sure you enter to win! ENJOY!

I love it on my cheesecake and sometimes on my oatmeal!
Oh wow that pie looks good! If only we celebrated Thanksgiving in the UK!
I have been in the pie mood very recently …maybe it’s becz I try to think of new pies to put out on the table at the end of the month. (I do a dozen …and spend 2 days doing them! I can’t help it, I love a variety! Besides, we invite more than 50 friends and family for dinner…and pie!)
Loving this cranberry pie! (=

I LOVE frozen yogurt/ice cream pies! IF you ask them they totally beat regular cake but that is a ice cream lover speaking 🙂 And with the fruit additions? Total winner!
