SOUTHERN SWEET POTATO PIE



Southern Sweet Potato Pie image

Traditional Southern-style sweet potato pie. This is my mother's recipe, but she's Mimi to my kids, so in our house we call this dish Mimi's sweet potato pie. It's delicious right out of the oven, at room temp, or right out of the refrigerator.

SIMPLE CRUSTLESS SWEET POTATO PIE



Simple Crustless Sweet Potato Pie image

This recipe is pretty versatile. I used a can of Farmer's Market sweet potato puree, and you can easily swap out for a can of squash puree or pumpkin. Unsweetened soymilk does just fine in this too, I just happened to have vanilla on hand and think that made it a little sweeter.
