    I made these in 12 regular muffin tins. I thought that would mean you could only have one, but I used 1/4 c splenda brown sugar, added cinnamon and nutmeg and a little less of the phyllo and mine came out to be 107.8 calories! It could stand less and still be sweet! Wonderful!! - 7/30/10

    Interesting picture... certainly does NOT show phyllo dough, although now it does show mini's (didn't back on 11/10/12 when it first came out).. it's a mini pie with a crust! How difficult is it to put a picture that actually represents the item that was made? - 11/10/12

    Splenda makes a brown sugar sub. could help with calorie content? - 11/10/09

    I make a sweet Potato Caserole. Same as pie but without the crust. Saves lots of calories. I like the egg beaters and will use that this time. Is there a brown sugar substitue that could be used? - 11/10/09
  • GOODHEALTH4EVER
    IT WAS A CHALLENGE TO USE THE PHYLLO DOUGH AT FIRST, BUT IT GOT EASIER AS I WENT ALONG. THE FINISHED PRODUCT WAS EXCELLENT! I WILL MAKE THIS OFTEN AND WILL ALSO TRY THE APPLE VERSION:) THANK YOU FOR THIS GREAT RECIPE! - 11/27/09

    This sounds good. I have seen frozen phyllo cups at the store that would make it much easier to do and they would make a great appetizer. - 4/10/11

    Although making this in casserole form might be lower in calories, these work better for me because the nutrition information is already figured out for each portion. I have a tendency to serve bigger portions when eating casserole style. This fits right in with my meal planning. Thank You! - 10/1/10

    I made these previously, from the recipe in my Betty Crocker subscription. It had the same plate as this picture. - 11/24/09

    these are wonderful! My husband loves them with the phyllo dough instead of pie crust. - 11/25/09

    Not very satisfying, how about a recipe for crustless pumpkin pie custards, made with fat-free condensed milk and egg beaters? - 11/10/09

    I am always looking for treats when I am in the building phase. This is perfect. My make "me" snacks, then snacks for my guests. I will use this recipe as a guide for my Sweet Potato Pie Tarts. - 11/25/09

    Can I freeze them? I want to make these but can only eat one at a time! Even with my daughters eating one a day - that's a lot of temptation sitting around! Help? - 1/18/10

    Almost a day's worth of carbs: but worth it! - 11/24/09

    This is so good! The phyllo dough is so light and the sweet potato is so creamy it is hard just to have one :) - 11/24/09

    Sweet Potatoes were .25/lb at Walmart yesterday! I put one in the toaster oven for my breakfast on this chilly morning. Think I will do the same as the squash & batch cook to freeze.
    They are sweet enough for me, but Splenda's brown sugar could be a substitute. - 11/18/09

    I have 2 bags of frozen sweet potatoes, do you think I could use those? - 11/17/09

    an elegant touch to a holiday meal. - 11/15/09

    This is delicious. I didn't use the phyllo dough and just made it inside of cupcake papers in my cupcake pan. Easier on the calories and in cleaning the pan too! - 11/10/13

    I will try these, I often make "Pumpkin Pie" in my glass pyrex baking dish without the crust and it's wonderful! Same recipe as regular pumpkin pie with egg beaters and bake it just a few minutes less. Very good alternative for the holidays. - 10/27/10
