Sweet Potato Pie

October 30, 2014 by Char

Potato Pie Memories

Sweet potato pie is the pie that holiday memories are made of! In my family on both sides, we didn’t eat pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving or Christmas, it was sweet potato pie all the way!

I was in Junior High before I actually ate a piece of pumpkin pie! Yep, school cafeteria and totally not impressed! Not a fan at all and I couldn’t understand why there was pumpkin pie everywhere but no sweet potato pie! Well, it didn’t take me long to find out that sweet potato pie was something my family and friends made. It was our pie! All I can say is “yea” for heritage, customs and traditions, both with food and in life!

DIY – Easy as Pie!

Today sweet potato pie has gone main stream. You can even buy sweet potato pie filling and sweet potato pies already made from some grocery stories and online stores like Amazon! I’m old school and I go the “DIY” route, but if you’re so inclined to buy your pie, be my guest and bon appetit! But if you want to make your pie I’m here for you! If you have a question or concern, just send me an email, I’ll hold your hand and walk you through it! It’s easy as pie!

Place into 9″ pie pan/s and flute edges. Chill dough one last time. Pour sweet potato pie filling into chilled pie shell (deep dish or regular pie pan).
