This Thanksgiving is likely going to be a smaller affair, therefore making 3 or 4 different types of pie might be too much.  Some traditions are meant to stay, but you can serve these easy, delectable treats in place of or alongside pie for a smaller crowd. Warm and creamy pumpkin pecan bread pudding may be prepared ahead in one large pan or in ramekins.   Either way, simply reheat and top with vanilla ice cream if desired.  Barbara’s apple pie bars bring all the traditional flavors to the table in an easy pick-up treat that disappears quickly and carrot cake cupcakes are everything you love about the classic cake with a swirl of cinnamon-scented cream cheese frosting.
