Thanksgiving Dinner Recipes Collection

Even though Thanksgiving isn’t a UK holiday, it’s become a firm favorite here as an excuse for a big fall feast with friends and family – Friendsgiving included! This growing collection gathers my Thanksgiving dinner recipes in one place: the turkey, the sides, the pumpkin and pecan desserts, and (because the day after is just as important) what to do with the leftovers.

I’ve kept everything as stress-free as possible, because nobody wants to spend the whole day wrestling with the oven. There’s a speedy spatchcock turkey, air fryer turkey breast for smaller gatherings and an easy stuffed turkey roll – or go for prime rib or beef Wellington if you’d rather skip the bird. Easy sides like wild rice dressing, French onion mashed potato gratin, air fryer green beans and one pan butternut squash orzo, plus homemade pumpkin bread and rolls, round out the table. Save room for dessert – mini pecan pies and a creamy pumpkin pie cheesecake are always a hit – then turn the leftovers into turkey pie, soup or a cozy stew. Happy cooking, and happy Thanksgiving!
