You can use either sweet potato or pumpkin for this recipe. I always tell my children it's pumpkin and they love to eat it with whip cream on top. We usually make several of these during the holiday season starting with Thanksgiving. Pies will also freeze well if you would like to make several in advance.

This was a good traditional sweet potato pie. I enjoyed the flavor. For lemon flavoring I use lemon juice and I didn't have evaporated milk, so I substituted buttermilk. Thanks for a good recipe!1Reply
