Bon Appétit has compiled a list of 53 Thanksgiving recipes, including traditional dishes and new variations, to assist home cooks in preparing a Thanksgiving feast. The recipes cover all courses, from appetizers to desserts, and include options for using leftovers.
A traditional Thanksgiving dinner, according to Bon Appétit, typically includes roast turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes, green beans or brussels sprouts, dinner rolls, and pumpkin, apple, or pecan pie. The publication offers versions of these classics alongside newer recipes.
Several recipes highlight specific techniques or ingredients. Breaking down the turkey before roasting is suggested for more even cooking and easier carving, with a maple-butter glaze adding visual appeal. A stuffing recipe incorporates breakfast sausage for extra flavor, while roasted garlic is used to enhance mashed potatoes. A tangy Parmesan dressing is recommended for crisp-tender green beans, and mashed sweet potato is included in a dinner roll recipe for a tender crumb and autumnal color.
The list also includes a homemade cranberry sauce designed for those who prefer the texture of canned sauce but want a more refined result. Purple sweet potatoes are featured in a spiced sweet potato dish, and a ginger, miso, and chile roasted winter squash offers a fresh side option. A cornbread-custard spoonable side dish utilizes boxed corn muffin mix for ease of preparation. Finally, a cloudlike pumpkin pie provides an alternative to the traditional version.
