This recipe has some serious problems. Mashed sweet potatoes - does that hateful eddy cut-upward sweet potatoes or use sweetned from the can. Where's the sugar! I prepared this recipe using bodily sweet potatoes and served this pie equally my only desert for my Thanksgiving dinner and was disappointed, likewise as, my guests. This recipe needs to be removed, corrected or mentioned that it is not an actual dessert before others notice error as well. Thanks.

This recipes was really proficient. It took just xv minutes to put together after the Sweetness Potato's were cooked. I similar the recipe because it was easy and very basic then I added my own personal touch of ane tsp of lemon actress and and a 1/2 loving cup of Sugar and the pie came out wonderful.

When I first tried this, it was awful because it was not sweet. I have since modified information technology and added 1/2 c. sugar and now it'southward ameliorate. Also, to make it even easier, employ one big can (29 oz. I believe) of sweetness potatoes. It makes almost 2 cups mashed. But otherwise an easy recipe to follow.

Lisa H. must have forgotten the sugar ingredient, and I tin can't believe anyone would make this blindly without sugar and so rate information technology poorly. Add together 2/three cups of sugar and 1/three cup of brown sugar and it is one of the all-time and easiest sweet potato pie recipes I have ever fabricated.

I volition never use a recipe without reading reviews first, after we made this pie, which is merely edible because we put LOTS of whipped foam on it...I realized all reviews said same thing, and I agree, this needs saccharide and without it it was TERRIBLE

This is no doubtfulness the worst recipe I have always tried. Where is the sugar? And that may not be all that is incorrect with it. I wasted my time and material.

The recipe was easy, quick and delicious. I have always thought of making sugariness white potato pie and at present I accept and my hubby (to exist) said I was the best (with your help) naturally. Thanks. Helen

This is the recipe we were looking for! It'due south brilliantly unproblematic, plain everyday nutrient. Such a refreshing change from all the recipes whose overuse of saccharide masks the nice flavors of the other ingredients. This pie is non sweet enough to qualify as "dessert" for lots of folks, but for me it'due south quite sweet enough and is a very nice way to consume sugariness potatoes. For those wondering how much fresh sweet potato will yield the 2 cups of brew needed for each pie, we found that baking about 1 1/iv pound of potatoes per pie was nearly right. Bake in a covered dish with the skins on, let them cool, peel and brew. Nosotros made a whole wheat pastry flour and lard crust that makes this pie a yummy earthy repast in itself.

I accept compared all iv sugariness potatoe pies nutritional value. I am looking for more of a side dish then a dessert. I think this may be the one. Less (no) sugar is all-time for us older adults watching our weight, but I hear your reviews about the abscence of sugar.....I want to taste the sweet potato non the sugar. Will permit you know.....

Quick, easy, delicious. This pie tastes like sweet potatoes, non corn syrup. Some people will find this too much of a dissimilarity to their normal high-fructose diet. I found information technology perfectly lovely!

HEED WARNING: THIS RECIPE is the WORST RECIPE for anything that I have institute on allrecipes.com or whatsoever other recipe site. Information technology turned out really dry out and salty....

This recipe was horrible!! Information technology needs sugar!!

I didn't exactly like this. It didn't have whatsoever carbohydrate in it and I could tell. I will non brand this recipe once again.

bones concept is good..I added one/2 cup brownish sugar and i/3 loving cup white carbohydrate and a teaspoon of vanilla

I too am surprised anyone would blindly make this without calculation sugar, although I'1000 not convinced that the ommission of saccharide by Lisa was an accident. That said, I would never, ever use canned sugariness potatoes to make this pie or whatever pie. Nor would I boil them. I bake mine to maximize the natural sweet and flavor that sweet potatoes (actually Yams) are famous for. Yes, it's more of a hassle that way but if I was only after convenience then I'd purchase a set-made pie instead of making my ain. I added the sugar amounts suggested past diab96 and as well added more clove and less nutmeg than the recipe calls for. Not quite a complete swapping of the ii amounts only nearly halfway inbetween that and what the recipe calls for. Lamentable, no verbal measurements. I tend to wing it and forgot to write down the precise amounts. I also added ii teaspoons of vanilla excerpt (real, not the imitation stuff).

I didn't realize it until after information technology was made that there was no sugar in the recipe! All that piece of work and we didn't like it. Perhaps if y'all load it down with a lot of whipped topping it will exist edible!

It's funny reading the reviews -- people either hate or dearest this recipe. I enjoyed it. I did add together 1/3 loving cup saccharide bc I was making it for a birthday party and didn't want to disappoint the sweetness tooths. Adjacent time I will make it without saccharide, though, bc I adopt things a trivial less sweet when the flavour is so proficient otherwise. I too used unsweetened rice milk bc at that place'south a dairy allergy in my family, and that probably added a bit of extra sweetness.

I didn't observe that there was no sugar in this! I used nigh twice as much spice - accidentally - and leftover mashed sweet potatoes from Thanksgiving dinner. I thought it was wonderful. I used a no-gyre pie crust recipe that I found here, too. (didn't take whatsoever shortening in the business firm) I actually liked this pie and will make it once again. Nosotros ate information technology warm, with vanilla yogurt, for breakfast. This could go our Solar day-After-Thanksgiving breakfast tradition.

I wonder if she meant to use sweetened condensed milk instead of evaporated milk? That would add the missing sweet.

I call back she forgot to put carbohydrate down as an ingredient. I use i/iii cup dark brown sugar and 1/4 cup white sugar and some lemon zest and it turns out wonderfully.

Either the evaporated milk should be replaced with sweetened condensed milk, or sugar should be added. I used canned sweet potatoes and added about half a cup of sugar. Good that way, peculiarly with a homemade chaff. I imagine that sweetened condensed milk with boiled, mashed sweet potatoes would exist good too.

Today is Thanksgiving and I fabricated 3 of these pies for my family. My husband and I sampled the pie and we did not similar it. We did not care for this recipe.

going to try this for thanksgiving. cheers for a recipe that is not total of sugar. at that place are a lot of people that are diebtic. this gives me the gamble to make a pie that is not total of carbohydrate.

i was looking for a pumkin pie recipe and my chef just told me to modify the sweet tater to pumkin. i did that, only it was missing sugar. so i added most 1 cup of sugar and virtually 1 tablespoon vanilla extract. and wha~lah! information technology was cracking. you lot can make the sweet spud by just switching information technology to sweet potatos.mines was great, but it wasn't sweet irish potato pie.

Extremely good recipe. I did add 1/2 loving cup sugar to sweeten the pie and omitted the clove as I notice clove a potent spice which I personally don't care for. Definitely a fan favourite in our firm!

I was looking for a simple recipe for sugariness white potato pie for my husband and when he tried information technology he said it wasn't good. I noticed when I was making it that it didn't call for sugar merely thought, hey maybe it is sweeter than pumpkin which does call for sugar. I was very disappointed when my efforts failed due to a recipe that lacked a little umph.

I think the pie needed sugar. The pie needs help.

Yep I hold I put some saccharide in but should take put more and the vanilla might not have hurt it either. It has been a while since I made one and I was a piddling disappointed that it was not better. Specially when Y'all make it for someone else that actually similar sweet potato pies.. :-(

I added 2cups of squash and information technology is lovely.

Sometimes the simplest recipes are the best. I have made many a sweet murphy pie and this ane is going to supercede whatsoever recipes I have used earlier. I did add 1/4 cup of brown sugar and 1/4 cup of white sugar. Only I plan on trying information technology with no sugar. And I call up the best way to add the sweet white potato is to bake it merely like you would a regular broiled irish potato with the skin on.

VERY GOOD AND Like shooting fish in a barrel TO MAKE

We did not enjoy this at all. There was no sugar or vanilla in this recipe. I ever make a recipe to specs the first time but I will stick to my regular recipe before trying this again. By adding all the liquid in at once Mabee it difficult to get the smooth texture that I wanted.
