Question:
Looking for a good recipe for SF sweet potato pie....
I love sweet potato pie and my mom says she will make one that I can eat as long as I find her a recipe. I prefer one that she can use Splenda with, unless you know of something better. I have several good cookbooks, but not one has a recipe for sweet potato pie. Thanks for the responses!....Karen (lap rny- 9/20/02- down 65lbs.) — karmiausnic (posted on November 14, 2002)

What a timely question! I am known for my sweet potato pie and have been
wondering how to make one that I can actually eat! I think I will make the
Thanksgiving pies for the family the usual way and make one for myself
using Splenda. If your mom takes this approach, we can compare notes
later.

There is a recipe on the Splenda website for a 'Upside Down Sweet Potato
Pudding'. I am not sure if it is similar to a sweet potato pie, but you
can check out the site. Let us know what you decide to make and how it
turns out!

I just want to remind people who plan on baking with Splenda over the
holidays to check out Splenda's website as there are tips on baking with it
vs. baking with sugar (different baking times, etc.) :o)

Well, I have done a TON of experimenting with all sorts of things. I even
came up with a TERRIFIC recipe for traditional cranberry sauce....tastes
just like Ocean Spray out of the can. Anyway, I don't have a recipe for
sweet potato pie, but if you'll email me the one you usually use, I'll tell
what I'd substitute to make it good. I've done this with a variety of
things. Check out my profile page or www.freewebs.com/recipes-after-rny
for other sample recipes and recipe book. Good luck!
