Are the holidays sneaking up on you? Maybe you’re gearing up for a party or planning a feast to feed a crowd. If so, consider a pie—it’s one of the best ways to serve something both filling and flexible!
Pies have the unique charm of mixing things up, allowing you to get creative with ingredients: kale, lentil, buttery gravy etc. There’s always a little thrill when slicing into a pie and revealing the delicious layers inside!
With that thought in mind, here are 25 savory and classic pie recipes that are perfect for holiday dinners or family gatherings!
25. Heart-Shaped Strawberry Nutella Hand Pies – Easy Valentine’s Dessert
These Heart-Shaped Strawberry Nutella Hand Pies are just what you need to treat that special someone this Valentine’s Day.
If you’re searching for a simple, charming dessert to impress your sweetheart (and bring a big smile to your kids’ faces), these strawberry Nutella hand pies are a quick fix that taste absolutely decadent.
Enjoy every bite!
24. Chicken Taco Pie for a Busy Night
This dish is a true family favorite, ideal for those hectic evenings filled with soccer practice, swimming lessons, or scout meetings. I prep it in the morning and just slide it into the oven when we get home — it’s a lifesaver on busy nights!
23. Tamale Casserole – Make a Savory Pie for Holiday!
Tamales are always a must-order for me when dining out—the flavors are just unbeatable, especially when I don’t have to make them myself! Let’s face it, tamales can be a bit of a hassle to prepare at home.
That’s why this pie is a perfect hack: all the delicious tamale flavors, without the hours in the kitchen.
While ground beef works great, I love swapping it out for leftover carnitas when I have some on hand. The tender meat chunks add an amazing texture alongside the beans and cornbread.
22. Spaghetti Pie for Dinner
This recipe is just too quirky to pass up, so of course, I had to give it a go!
Once cooked, the spaghetti crust has this amazing crunchy edge with a soft, firm center that holds a slice beautifully.
The filling has a lasagna vibe, with layers of ricotta, meat sauce, and plenty of cheese.
If you’re into spicy, throw in some chilis for a kick, and go all out with extra cheese on top—it only makes it better!
21. Turkey Pot Pie with Holiday Leftovers
Still working through those holiday leftovers?
They can start to feel a bit uninspiring after a while, can’t they?
That’s why this turkey pot pie is such a winner! It’s a delicious way to reinvent those leftovers into a family favorite. And it’s not just for turkey—you can toss in any extra veggies, like those roasted Brussels sprouts or honey-glazed parsnips.
Say goodbye to drab leftovers and hello to a cozy, comforting pie!
20. French-Canadian Fish Pie with Salmon
Salmon brings a fresh, light touch to pie filling, setting it apart from the usual beef or chicken—and it looks beautiful, too!
I’m a big fan of fish pies and grew up with a version similar to a fish pot pie, featuring a creamy sauce and shrimp.
The lemon and dill sauce is what really elevates the flavors here. Adding a bit of that zesty sauce into the filling brings out all the best notes in this comforting dish.
19. Kolokithopita (Fantastic Greek Zucchini Feta Pie Recipe)
But that doesn’t mean they should skip out on a dish this tasty.
This clever recipe swaps in grated zucchini (or summer squash) for spinach, giving it a milder, lighter flavor.
You’ll still get that delicious filling with onion, garlic, and feta, plus the same amazing crispy crust that makes this dish so satisfying.
18. Tourtière (French-Canadian Meat Pie with Mashed Potatoes)
Adding mashed potatoes to your pie meat is a brilliant way to hold it all together while adding a creamy touch to the filling.
I usually go for a mix of ground beef and pork, but swapping in some pork sausage meat would really kick up the flavor.
Thanks to the mashed potatoes, you’ll get a pie that slices up perfectly every time.
17. Cheddar Pie with Onion
You’ll come across a version of this pie all over the UK, as cheese and onion are a match made in heaven.
A good mature cheddar is key here, as its bold flavor takes center stage!
Make sure to soften the onions before combining them with the cheese, and a touch more mustard wouldn’t hurt to bring out the richness even further.
16. Try Butternut Squash Leek and Cream Cheese Galette
As a baker, my relationship with pastry is a bit of a rollercoaster.
With warm hands and a less-than-gentle touch, I often find myself dealing with cracks and breaks while trying to mold it to the dish.
But that’s the beauty of a galette—no need for perfection!
This rustic pie brings together the fantastic flavors of squash, leeks, and goat cheese. And shaping it couldn’t be easier—just fold the edges over, leaving the center open.
15.
These Mini Chicken Pot Pies with Pie Crust are adorable, bite-sized versions of the comforting classic we all adore. Just grab a mini muffin tin and some shredded chicken, and you’ll have a tasty appetizer that everyone will rave about!
14.
I used to be all about Spanakopita before going vegan, so when my garden blessed me with a bunch of greens, I knew I had to make a Vegan Spanakopita! This Greek Spinach Pie is a fantastic way to use up fresh leafy greens.
With this vegan spin, you still get that juicy mix of greens, a tangy, creamy vegan feta and ricotta filling, and all the crunch from that golden filo pastry crust. It’s a delicious way to enjoy a classic with a plant-based twist!
13.
Shepherd’s Pie is a classic family favorite, especially when it comes to ground beef recipes. This dish makes a wonderful weeknight meal—it’s simple, delicious, filling, and so comforting.
