Fall menus are on the horizon at major chain restaurants around the country, which means get ready for plenty of pumpkin over the next couple of months.
McDonald’s is set to introduce two fall items later this week. According to McDonald’s Menu Spotter, the company’s version of the ubiquitous Pumpkin Spice Latte will return on Aug. 29, along with a beloved dessert item.
McDonald’s is bringing back its Pumpkin & Crème Pie on Friday as well. The chain also featured the sweet, flaky tweet on its menu on a limited basis each of the last three years.
“Our Pumpkin & Crème Pie is also making its return, featuring a signature turnover-style crust filled with pumpkin pie on one side, crème on the other, and baked to perfection with a sugar coating,” said McDonald’s Menu Spotter. “It’s the perfect pairing to your pumpkin spice latte.”
A fan favorite
Based on previous comments from McDonald’s customers, there will be more than a few people eagerly awaiting Friday for the opportunity to consume the Pumpkin & Crème Pie once again.
“Ok this pie option should never leave the menu again bc I LOVED them so much,” one person wrote on Instagram.
“I ordered 12 last night before they closed,” a second person said.
“yeah, these things taste better than they’re supposed to, I’ll take 2,” a Redditor added.
“I never knew this was a thing, I’m pretty excited!” a fourth person said.
“Maybe it’s because I’m Mexican and calabazas run in my veins, but this is probably my favorite dessert from a fast food spot. I prefer them with coffee,” another Reddit commenter wrote.
Where can you get them?
According to McDonald’s Menu Spotter, the Pumpkin & Crème Pie, along with the Pumpkin Spice Latte, will be available at “participating McDonald’s restaurants nationwide starting Aug. 29 for a limited time.”
