Sweet Potato Pie: Part II
Success! I’m happy to report that the sweet potato pie was a big hit. Everybody raved about it including my Aunt, who doesn’t really like sweet potatoes, but tried it anyway. Although, I did have some initial doubts while I was making it: the potatoes seemed lumpy, the filling was bright orange, and crust looked like it was browning a little too quickly. But overall, the pie was wonderful. The filling tasted great. It was wonderfully fresh, and much better than anything you could buy at a store, and it actually tasted like sweet potato and not pumpkin. I would definitely make this again. Also this was the first time I’d ever baked in a glass pie plate, and I have to say, I’m impressed. It really did a great job of evenly heating the crust, and made it easier to see how thoroughly the crust was baking. I highly recommend getting a glass pie plate for your next pie adventure!
