You may have heard that there’s a bit of a Thanksgiving fiasco this year. From labor shortages to supply shortages, Thanksgiving staples will be a little harder to put on the table and maybe a little more expensive. With that being said, there’s still a lot of bakeries doing their best to bake up delicious seasonal pies to make your Thanksgiving one for the books. Here are 5 of our favorites here in Denver, each listed with how you can order and the last day you can send in your orders.
1. Hinman Pie
This year, you can order at Hinman Pie through November 22nd. They’ve got three different styles: savory, sweet, or even smaller hand pies. For sweet, Hinman will be doing 6 and 9″ toffee pecan and salted maple pies as specialty pies, alongside their more traditional apple, cherry, and even pumpkin. If you’re looking for a savory pie side to add to the table, try their chicken pot pie or pork green chile. You can call them at 720-271-4975 to secure your pie.
Where: 5604 Kendall Ct, Arvada, CO 80002

The Huckleberry is a full-service bakery in Louisville that’s been around serving up breakfast, lunch, and baked goods since their opening. Known for creating amazing pies (they even come in gluten-free and vegan options as well), don’t miss a chance to reserve one of their staples, like pumpkin and apple crumble, alongside their fruit-forward varieties: cherry and peach huckleberry.
