MAIN Home Life Cooking Pie Recipes Sweet Potato Pie

Sweet potato pie is a southern tradition that ranks high in soul food cooking. Simple to make and a high fiber healthy food it has long been part of the traditional Thanksgiving meal.

But this pie is just too good to only eat once a year. Did we mention recent research that proves nutritious sweet potatoes can help you maintain overall good health?

Not that we ever needed an excuse, of course.

A southern US tradition, sweet potato pie has been steadily gaining in popularity in many households where you're likely to find it at many holiday gatherings...or just served by itself as a delicious and healthy snack any time.

Some like their sweet potato pie plain, others top it with pecans, ice cream, or whipped topping. A few culinary pros even mix up a meringue with egg whites to top it off during the last few minutes of baking. The taste is sweet enough to serve as a dessert, but sweet potato pie can also take the place of a veggie at the main course.

Either way, sweet potato pie is an all-occasion treat!

Enjoy.
