This of course is my all time favorite pie! Isn't it interesting to note that to so many people here in the US - it is considered strange.

I wrote a hub about 'Weird Pies" - it's in the link on your recipe page with a picture of a small sweet potato pie - and it is one of my most popular hubs!

So it depends on where you live in the US - the pies you are familiar with. My second favorite is the bean pie - again unknown to many.

Thanks for the recipe! That crust is equally important!
