The McDonald’s Menu Item Fans Wait All Year for Is Finally Back

Is it just me, or is the world feeling a little brighter now that pumpkin everything is back? Pumpkin lattes, pumpkin treats—even pumpkin dish soap! And yes, I do support pumpkin dish soap. While most hold their breath until the pumpkin-spiced latte returns, others find that this sweet treat from McDonald’s is the one that takes their breath away. Now, it’s finally making its long-awaited return. 

McDonald’s Returning Pumpkin and Creme Pie

That’s right—McDonald’s pumpkin and creme pie is officially back on the menu. This fan-favorite treat features a layer of spiced pumpkin topped with vanilla creme, all wrapped in a warm, buttery, flaky crust. And everyone is understandably excited about it. When the news started spreading online, fans quickly took to the comments to express their joy.

“How do I explain this is the reason why I breathe?” one commenter wrote. 

“This is my favorite pie from McDonald’s,” another wrote. “I always look forward to the fall season just to go to McDonald’s and find my favorite cream pie. It’s so good!” 

Another user commented that this pie is so good that it’s the only thing they’ll eat at McDonald’s for the rest of their life.

Availability can vary by region, so it’s a good idea to check with your local McDonald’s to see if it’s offering it. You can also use the McDonald’s app or website to check if the pie is available at a nearby location. Last year, McDonald’s shared a statement: “The Pumpkin and Creme Pie is a regional menu offering, currently available in participating local markets for a limited time, including Seattle, Los Angeles, Chicago, New York City, and more.”
