Just cook, shmush, season, mix with eggs & fine matza meal/flour, pour & bake. Use some OJ as well if you want. What's so hard? I do it on Pesach (minus the mm/flour!) Hug

There is a sweet potato kugel (or carrot but I use sweet potatoes in the old yellow spice and spirit. Or listen to Bubby, it works. You can put pie spice (sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, etc) or pikanti/salty (hawaige, curcum, etc)

Why do you want no crust? Wheat allergy or carb issues? I make "pumpkin" pie with sweet potatoes, soy milk, splenda, eggs and spices. For crust I layer the bottom with finely ground almonds or hazel nuts.

I make pumkin pie without a crust. I just follow the recipe on the back of Libby's Pure pumkin. I substitute vanilla soy milk for the condensed milk in the recipe. Works beautifully. I bake it in a round pyrex.

I can't get Libby's pumkin pie or frozen pie crusts (and I'm NOT in the mood to make my own)...
Thanks anyways, ladies!

No one has a recipe for me?
I've made a couple from online in the past (before anyone suggests it) and I wasn't happy with them. I have loads of sweet potatoes. Shabbos is in a couple of hrs and I'd like to try something.

why not just try the spice and spirit recipe without a crust? I'm sure it will be fine, maybe not amazing but certainly good.

or just roast the sweet potatoes.

I just bought some snowcrest shortcrust pastry yesterday, maybe that will work well for piecrusts if you can get it.

I'm scared to try a recipe that calls for a crust... the texture could be totally wrong and it'll be a nightmare to get out of the dish.

I was wondering about using that stuff as a crust.. let me know if you try it and how it works out!

I got this recipe from Micki- as a sweet potato pie, but I just bake it in a pan as a kugel. It is really good.

3 sweet potatoes-cooked and mashed
2 eggs
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup oil

mix all, bake about 1 hour @ 350. done when top if 'firm' (not liquidy).

My MIL bought some Israeli ones a year or so ago (shmitta) The Rav told her to let them rot, then double wrap and chuck them out.

It took months and months...... about 6 months I think.
