    Great tasting but it took much longer (almost 1 hour & 30 minutes to bake. I think bake time is a typo.

    Made it tonight. A really picky person liked it, so it`s a winner with me. I didn`t make the meringue . I put real whipped cream on top.

    I made this for Thanksgiving.

    I didn't do the meringue because we don't really care for it, though it does look delicious here. I also don't know how much my sweet potatoes weighed, but I used four mid to large sized ones and did the measurements of the other ingredients according to what Paula gives. I also didn't have honey so I used agave nectar. I was afraid that the mix wouldn't turn out right because it wasn't thick at all (use a large bowl because it WILL splash!. I used three 8 or 9 inch graham cracker crust pie pans and the pies turned out perfectly.

    Great and very easy recipe- I used Jack Daniels instead of the vanilla extract; bourbon brought out the favors in every bite

    Wonderful. I added half brown sugar and half white and baked about 30 min more. Delicious!

    I've made this recipe twice this week for Christmas Eve and a New Year's party. Here are some suggestions if you are working with different size pie plates or are trying to make it a little healthier.

    10" pie pan:
    Simply increase each ingredient by 33% (e.g., used 3 cups of sweet potatoes instead of 2. It required about 30 minutes longer in the oven, but the results were amazing. Great flavor and texture. Travels well across town, too.

    9x13" dish:
    After lining the dish with pastry, I simply doubled the pie recipe, and it was perfect. Bake time 1 hr 20 min.

    Healthy version:
    I wanted to see if I could make it healthier without compromising taste or texture, and I am delighted that my changes turned out so well.
    #1: I completely eliminated the butter, and I couldn't tell at all.
    #2: Substitute Silk brand Coconut Milk for milk.

    Results? Perfect! Outstanding recipe and (sugar aside not that unhealthy with these changes.

    This is by far the best sweet potato recipe I have had to date! I found this recipe a couple of years back for Thanksgiving and I've been using it every since. The only thing I did different was leave the meringue off, but I like it better that way.
