Disclaimer: I made this recipe to bring to a cousin's house for a family get together. I made a gluten free version for myself. I chose not to put the typical pecan topping on any pies as I know some in the family are allergic.
There are two recipes here - Regular Sweet Potato Pie and below Gluten Free Sweet Potato Pie.
THIS RECIPE IS NOT GLUTEN FREE. IT CONTAINS THE SWEET POTATO PREPARATION BEFORE MAKING THE PIES.

Sweet Potato Pie - Not Allergy Friendly - Made for family and friends.
Wash your sweet potatoes under cool water to remove dirt. Do not peel potatoes. Place into a pot of water and bring to a boil. Boil potatoes approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour. When they are very soft - a fork goes completely through easily - drain and rinse with cold water. Allow potatoes to cool. (see video)
When potatoes are cool enough to handle, place onto a clean towel and allow to cool completely. (see video)
Once the potatoes are completely cooled, peel off the skin with your fingers. It will come off easily. Remove any dark spots, sprouts or roots. Place into a large bowl. (see video)
Mash the sweet potatoes with a potato masher then switch to a mixer or KitchenAid if you have one. . Mix until smooth. (see video)
Measure out your potatoes into a separate bowl. Add in all ingredients below for the regular recipe - not allergy friendly. (see video)
Blend well with the hand mixer or KitchenAid. Spoon into pie crusts. (see video)
Place into a preheated 350 degree oven on middle rack. Bake for approximately 1 hour until a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean. Allow to cool completely. Top with whipped cream or any topping of your choice. Or you can eat plain.
