The holiday season has officially arrived at McDonald's with the brand's seasonal Holiday Pies.
McDonald's pies are one the chain's most popular desserts and have come in flavors ranging from Apple to Pumpkin and even Blueberry & Creme. Now the brand is giving its signature dessert a festive makeover with the return of the Holiday Pie. This festive treat starts with a smooth and creamy vanilla custard, which is wrapped up in a flaky, buttery crust that's been glazed with sugar and topped with rainbow sprinkles.
While the return of the Holiday Pie signals the unofficial start of the holiday season for many, you may not see them at your local McDonald's just yet. According to the brand, the pies are rolling out across the country now and will be available for a limited time during the 2021 holiday season.
