Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

    1-1/2 cup soymilk
    Egg substitute equal to 2 eggs
    1 tbsp cornstarch
    1 tsp vanilla
    2 cups mashed cooked sweet potato (or pumpkin or winter squash)
    1/2 cup flour
    2 tsp baking powder
    1/2 cup sugar
    1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
    1 tsp cinnamon
    1/2 tsp salt
    cooking spray

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Spray a 9-inch deep dish pie pan with cooking spray.
A deep dish is recommended because this pie will rise a lot during cooking but will shrink back as it cools.
Put the first 4 ingredients in the blender and blend well. Add the sweet potatoes and puree.
Add the remaining ingredients and blend on high, stopping to scrape the sides a few times to make sure everything is thoroughly blended.
Pour into the pie pan.
Bake for about 60 minutes.
A standard toothpick or knife test does not work on this pie. Look for the center to be moist, but cooked.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

    I baked these in a muffin pan (without baking cups) for 55 minutes, and they were delicious - cakey outside and moist and pudding-like in the center. Makes about 14 mini-pies, 90 calories a piece. Don't be tempted to take the pies out early though; they need the full time. - 8/11/07

    I love how this makes it own crust! I used less sugar, substituted rice milk for soy and arrowroot for corn starch. Next time I'll leave a few of the potato pieces in chunks. I think would add interest and texture. Really nice! - 10/21/08

    This is a great recipe. I made a huge casarole pan of it and basically winged it on adding the appropriately measured ingredients but it came out divine! Thanks for a great recipe...definitely a keeper! - 11/12/07
