Fall has arrived, and McDonald’s is bringing back a dessert that pumpkin fans have been waiting for: the Pumpkin & Crème Pie.
The seasonal pie is already appearing at select McDonald’s restaurants, giving customers another reason to make a quick stop for a taste of fall. While the chain has not made a major nationwide announcement yet, sightings are growing, and the pie is listed on McDonald’s website.
What Is the McDonald’s Pumpkin & Crème Pie?
The Pumpkin & Crème Pie puts two classic fall flavors together in one handheld dessert.
Inside the sugar-coated pastry crust are two fillings: spiced pumpkin pie filling on one side and a smooth crème filling on the other. The combination gives the pie a balance of warm pumpkin spice and creamy sweetness rather than making it a straight pumpkin dessert.
That contrast is a big part of why fans keep looking forward to its return.
Unlike McDonald’s regular Baked Apple Pie, the Pumpkin & Crème version is a seasonal treat, so its availability can be much harder to predict.
Is Pumpkin Pie Available Everywhere?
Reports indicate that the Pumpkin & Crème Pie has appeared at selected restaurants, including locations in Brooklyn and Dallas, while other sightings have been reported in different parts of the country. The rollout appears to be expanding, but availability can still depend on the individual restaurant.
That means seeing the pie online does not necessarily mean your nearest McDonald’s has it.
The easiest way to check is through the McDonald’s app or by checking the menu at nearby locations before making a trip. For more fast-food updates, check out our guide to Spicy Chicken McNuggets.
McDonald’s Pumpkin Pie Price
Early reports put the Pumpkin & Crème Pie at roughly $2 to $3, although the price can vary by location.
Because it is a limited seasonal item, fans may want to grab one when they spot it instead of waiting for another visit.
What Does McDonald’s Pumpkin Pie Taste Like?
If you have never tried McDonald’s Pumpkin & Crème Pie, the flavor is a little different from a traditional pumpkin pie. The pumpkin filling brings warm fall spices and a familiar seasonal taste, while the creamy filling adds a smooth, sweet contrast. The pastry crust gives each bite a light crunch on the outside, making the texture just as enjoyable as the flavor.
It is sweet without feeling like a full slice of pumpkin pie, which makes it an easy treat to enjoy with coffee, after a meal, or whenever a pumpkin craving hits. For longtime fans, that combination is what makes its return so exciting.
Why Fans Love It
There is something about a warm McDonald’s pie when the weather starts getting cooler. The crisp, sugar-coated crust, pumpkin filling and creamy center make this one feel more like a fall dessert than an everyday fast-food treat.
Fans have already been celebrating its return online, with some calling it one of their favorite fast-food desserts. Others suggest enjoying it with coffee or pairing it with vanilla soft serve for an even sweeter combination.
And there is an interesting twist this year: McDonald’s has moved away from its familiar pumpkin-spice coffee offering, making the Pumpkin & Crème Pie one of the chain’s notable pumpkin-flavored options for fall 2026.
The Bottom Line
If McDonald’s Pumpkin Pie has been on your fall wish list, now is a good time to start checking local menus.
The Pumpkin & Crème Pie is returning in select locations, and more restaurants may add it as the seasonal rollout continues. Just remember that availability is not guaranteed everywhere.
So, if you spot that familiar pumpkin-and-crème pie on the McDonald’s menu, you may want to order it while you can. Fall desserts have a habit of disappearing just as quickly as they arrive.
