I also add cinnamon, cloves and ginger and a pinch of salt. Some canned milk (condensed milk) and eggs makes it like a custard. And for pumpkin (or sweet potato) the pastry is on the bottom only, no top crust.

I really enjoy any dessert with cinnamon

I used sweet potato and it was good !

Sweet potato pie is a staple of the South.

@Marie2020 this is the recipe I use for either pumpkin or sweet potato pies.

For a 9" pie:

Pastry for a 9" pie (blind baked about 8 minutes)
2 eggs
1 pound of pumpkin or sweet potatoes (baked & mashed)
1/4 Cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 2/3 Cups evaporated milk

Heat oven to 425*
Beat the eggs slightly, then beat in remaining ingredients. Pour into pastry-lined pan.
Bake 15 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350* and bake another 45 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.


@Ladies-Eight I'll be interested in seeing how your recipe varies.

Made a round white loaf to have with dinner today. I forgot to order the bread flour I usually get. Will have to get some on the next food shop. Turned out nice tho.

That reminds me of feeding dog treats to my m-i-l. It was store bought snickerdoodle dog treats. She was over for tea. She loved the taste, but said it was dry. I said to give it to the dog, and she hollered about cinnamon giving dogs worms. As funny as that was, telling her I’d fed her dog food was funnier.

I get good results using the organic AP flour from costco.

It is nice to have a source of good flour!
