The easiest and tastiest of pies you’re ever going to make, this 5 ingredient brown sugar pie NEEDS to be part of your holiday menu!
Ok, so I know in the past I shared my famous 5 ingredient pumpkin pie with you, and I love readers telling me how they make this pie every year for the holidays (especially Thanksgiving that is coming up!) Even my mom makes my pumpkin pie recipe because it’s so easy and delicious.
Well, I have a second pie for you, one to add to your repertoire that will really impress your guests, and that won’t take you all day.
This 5 ingredient brown sugar pie is something truly amazing. It’s a pie that those people who are kind of on-the-fence about Thanksgiving dessert will love.
It’s got this amazing lightness to it, so it’s not a super heavy pie that will make you feel like you’re going to explode. No, this pie is the perfect end of meal dessert. It’s a simple sweet pie recipe that I cannot get enough of.
Oh, and the reason I’m sharing this 5 ingredient recipe on a non Five-Ingredient Friday? Because one of my friends who tried this pie is having a Friendsgiving and wanted to make this recipe and requested it, and another is having an early Thanksgiving with family and wanted to make this pie, so I just had to share the recipe.
This brown sugar pie is great with a dollop of fresh whipped cream on top, it has a wonderful almost caramel-like flavor, it’s honestly my favorite Thanksgiving pie, I’d love to know- what is yours?!! Hope you enjoy.
I’d love to hear from you in the comments: what’s your favorite kind of pie for the holidays?

I make a Rich Custard Pumpkin Pie from the The Cotton Country Collection cookbook (Junior League). It has a small amount of pumpkin and is more like a custard pie. Everyone in my family asks for it.
Becky says
My favorite pies are Pecan, Apple Cranberry and Peach. Enjoy reading your posts, and your delightful outlook on life and family.

Brown Sugar Pie?? Yes please!! Sounds amazing!! I’m a sucker for a my Mama Joiner’s coconut pie. Just learned how to make a perfect meringue…so my turn to make the coconut pies!

Brown sugar pie is super delicious, and oh my goodness, coconut pie sounds so good!

Leann says
Sweet potato, Dutch apple or cherry pie

LINDA THOMPSON says
Mmmmm, so many pies so many choices. I don’t think I have met a pie that I haven’t liked, well maybe pumpkin deffinatly not on my pie list. My favorite would probably be a good sour cherry. They are so hard to come by.
Sweetphi says
Oh yum, I know what you mean, sour cherry pie is so delicious!
Maria Ekena says
Today I made Key Lime pie- first time ever. I read on internet good way to squeeE the limes is with a garlic press- so off I went to local k mart so I could make this pie for my son who asked me to make it. It’s in frige now and I need to calculate how many points on weight watchers it will be for a small piece. .
Sweetphi says
Oh yum, key lime pie is delicious!
Frances says

Oh interesting, I’ve never had that type of pie, totally needed to google it, and it looks amazing.
Rebecca S. says
My favorite holiday pie is the cranberry-pear-almond one that our dearest friends bring every year. I also love apple pie. In fact, I always make extra apple pie so we can eat it for breakfast. Leftover pie is actually my favorite breakfast food.
Sweetphi says
That pie sounds amazing 🙂
Jeffrey says
Ever since I was a little tike pecan pie was always my favorite. I’ve had variations, but nothing beats the classic with a dollop of whipped cream!
Rose W says
The pie looks good. That said do you have any ideas for less sugar or gluten free? Enjoy your blog
Sweetphi says
I have two recipes I’d suggest:

Sweetphi says
I completely agree, good ‘ole pecan pie with a dollop of whipped cream!
Carol Hauer says
My favorite pie is apple. I’ve never been able to match my mother’s or my grandmother’s apple pies though. I have learned that a secret ingredient to pie crust is a splash of vodka! Whatever is in vodka really improves the texture and taste of the crust.
Sweetphi says
Oh, what an interesting tip, I’ll have to try that!
Carl milito says
My all time favorite pie is ” wet bottom shoe fly pie” and I get it wen I visit Lancaster, PA home to the Amish who make excellent pies, 2nd runner up is blueberry, followed by sweet potato.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Sweetphi says
Those all sound amazing!

My favorite pie? That’s a hard question… I love pie! 😊 Probably fruit… Cherry, blueberry, lemon chiffon…. but there’s coconut cream, and carmel pecan, too!

Light brown sugar or dark? Please help
Sweetphi says
Either would work! I used light in this one
Melanie Barnes says
Do you use light brown sugar? Or dark? Or does it matter? I have light. Also, is Pure vanilla extract what I should be using?
Sweetphi says
Hi Melanie, does not matter light or dark, and yes, pure vanilla extract 🙂 Hope you love this pie as much as we do.

Thank you so much, so glad you like the look of this recipe. I made it for Thanksgiving and it was all gone before the end of the meal lol!
Amy says
I made the pie this weekend (never want a fail the day of, right?). Let’s just say I was going to make the pie for Christmas (when more family is in town) but my brother said that it would need to be made for both Thanksgiving AND Christmas. We loved it – and how simple?! Delish!
Sweetphi says
Oh my goodness Amy, THANK YOU for such awesome feedback, I’m so glad you liked the recipe, this is definitely going to be on my menu!
Nancy Truszynski says
Wondering how this pie might be in a graham cracker crust? Don’t know the consistency and how it would hold up?
Thanks,
Nancy
Sweetphi says
Oh, that’s a great question. I think it would hold up great! I’d love to know how you like it after trying it with that kind of crust 🙂
