I am not a sweet potato/yam fan so I was skeptical of how it might taste but once I tasted it I thought this was so close to pumpkin pie (which is my favorite that it blew me away. Easy pie to put together. I did have to cook it a little longer than 45 minutes, but the instructions mentioned extra time may be needed.
