Does anyone have a Sweet Potato Pie recipe made with Splenda?
Piecrust
Ingredients
1 1/4 cups All-Purpose Flour
1 tablespoon Splenda® Granular
1/4 teaspoon Salt
5 tablespoons cold Butter or Margarine, cut up
3 tablespoons cold Vegetable Shortening, cut up
3 to 4 tablespoons ice water
Directions
Combine flour, Splenda® and salt. Add butter and shortening; cut into dry ingredients until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time until mixture begins to hold together. Shape pastry into a ball and flatten into a thick disk. Wrap and refrigerate 40 minutes. (Can be made ahead. Wrap and refrigerate up to 2 days. Let stand at room temperature 10 minutes before rolling out.)
Filling
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups of mashed, cooked Sweet Potatoes
2 Eggs well beaten
1 cup Milk
3/4 cup Vermont® Sugar Free Syrup
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
1/2 tsp. Nutmeg
1 tsp. Rum flavor
4 tablespoons Butter, melted
Directions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Combine ingredients in a large bowl and beat until smooth and well blended. Pour into 9" piecrust (filling should be at least 1/4 inch below the rim). Bake for 10 minutes then reduce heat to 300 degrees and bake for about 50 minutes or until the filling is firm.
Makes 8 servings.

Hello fellow Georgian,
This is the recipe I always use and you cannot tell a difference. I love it and no one has ever noticed its not made with real sugar.
Sweet Potato Pie:
2c cooked sweet potatoes
1 stick light butter
1/4c milk
1 and 1/4c splenda
1 egg, beaten

Boil sweet potatoes until tender. Put in large mixing bowl. While still warm, mash at low speed, add butter, splenda, egg, milk, and vanilla. Pour into pie shell and bake @ 350 degrees 30 to 40 minutes.
Hope you like it,
