I always thought of sweet tater pie as a poor man’s pumpkin pie.

Pumpkin in pie (IMHO) has an odd texture.

You cannot beat a Yam Pecan Pie.
River Road Recipes, page 207/208.. It’s over the top good.

“I always thought of sweet tater pie as a poor man’s pumpkin pie.”

Other than the pumpkin or sweet potato they use the same exact ingredients. Sweet potato pie is actually more labor intensive to make , you have to whipped the potatoes and sit there and pull the strings out of it to get a decent pie .

Sweet potato pie is more of a southern thing because it is easier to grow them in the hot humid climate .

Must be a Yankee. Never had pumpkin til I was 20...it was ok but not like sweet potato or pecan.
