Pumpkin pie topping without nuts?
Hi,
I'm planning to make a pumpkin pie with nuts as a topping but one of my friends is allergic to nuts (AND CHOCOLATE!) Is there any substitute? Or are there any Thanksgiving-y recipes that are chocolate and nut-free? (and that can also impress the guests?)
Thanks

Erin McDowell's Pithivier with cranberry filling, and let the crunch come from the puff pastry top crust.

Apple (pull apart) babka

Some fruit crumble - apple alone, or mix with other seasonal fruits- and top with a cornflake streusel for crunch

Omit the almond topping from the apple babka.
If you want color and crunch on top, use instead dried fruit, cold cereal and/or toasted oats
