‘Pie-Palooza’ Recipe Contest Announcement
Share your best pie recipe between August 6 and September 14, 2026, for the chance to win $800 from Taste of Home and Plugrà Premium European Style Butter.
It might be steamy outside, but here at Taste of Home, we’re already thinking ahead to one of our favorite meals of the year: Thanksgiving dinner. Specifically dessert.
We’ve partnered with Plugrà butter to find this year’s top pie recipes, and we think one may just be in your recipe box. We’re hungry for apple-quince with a lattice top, spiced Mexican chocolate silk, your grandma’s brown butter chess pie, or something we can’t even imagine—yet. If your signature pie is creative, buttery and an absolute showstopper, count us in.
Share your recipe between August 6 and September 14, 2026, for the chance to win.
