Sweet and simple desserts for every occasion.
The Pioneer Woman’s Pumpkin Snickerdoodles are a brilliant autumnal twist on the classic cookie, designed specifically to solve the common “cakey pumpkin cookie” problem.

The Pioneer Woman’s Pumpkin Pie (adapted with Condensed Milk) is the ultimate shortcut to a silky, custard-like texture without the fuss of measuring sugar and cream separately. While Ree Drummond has a few variations of pumpkin treats, this version leans into the “easy but decadent” philosophy of ranch cooking. Sweetened condensed milk is the secret …
This moist, fluffy joanna gaines banana muffins recipe is made with melted butter, brown sugar, and plenty of chunky mashed bananas, coming together in just over 30 minutes. The real secret lies in the generous sprinkling of granulated sugar on top, which creates a bakery-style crackly crust as they bake. I love making these for …

Pioneer Woman Raspberry Pretzel Jello Salad is the ultimate retro dessert that walks the line between sweet and salty with absolute perfection. Ree Drummond, the queen of ranch cooking, champions this nostalgic classic (often just called “Strawberry Pretzel Salad,” though she loves swapping in raspberries for a tart twist) as a must-have for potlucks and …
Pioneer Woman Root Beer Float Pie is pure childhood nostalgia in a pie dish. Ree Drummond is the queen of unpretentious, crowd-pleasing desserts, and this recipe is a prime example of her fun, “semi-homemade” style.
