Pumpkin Vs Sweet Potato

Well as I said before I wasn't sure earlier what pie I was going to make for Thanksgiving this year. But after an experiment last night my husband and I decided Sweet Potato will be on our menu for this year. My husband was shocked when I told him what was in the pie, he couldn't believe it was so creamy and good. We have done pumpkin pies in the past and to get a really creamy taste we usually have to use half and half or cream and white sugar in the filling, that was simply not the case with this sweet potato pie recipe that I got from Skinny Taste.

I could tell you how to make this pie but it seems silly to do so when Gina has done such an excellent job. So here is where you want to go to get the recipe and step by step instructions.

I will say I forgot to add the vanilla and it still tasted great, I also miss read the ingredients and used twice as much potato as I should have (probably why it took longer to bake and didn't all fit in the pie crust) but because of that I will probably take 1/3 a cup of sugar out of the recipe (it was sweet enough for me as it was) when I make it again. For now we will just suffer through with our less then perfect sweet potato pie.
