Okay, apparently, I haven't lived!! I seem to be having a lot of "firsts." This is yet another one. I have never baked a sweet potato pie in my life. I wanted to see if I could, so I set out on my mission.
The only thing that isn't homemade with these pies is the crust. Could I have baked some crusts, sure, but in the interest of time, I bought them. They are the kind that come in the freezer section and are not pre-baked.
The biggest mistake I made was turning off the stove accidentally. I was resetting the timer on the stove and must have hit cancel instead. I didn't realize it until it was time to take the pies out.
My thought: Why can't I smell the pies?? You can always smell things that are baking in the oven. To my shock and horror the stove was off!!!
I turned it back on, but had to keep checking to see if they were done. Luckily, I was able to save the pies.
They came out just the way I expected sweet potato pies to taste!! I'm so pleased!!
Ignore the cookie sheet, because it has been well worn! lol
