Ok, here is my grandma`s famous recipe

First, You will need:
1 pound of sweet potatoes ( you should peel & cube them)
1 1/4 cups of plain yogurt
3/4 cup of DARK brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg
5 egg yolks
Salt
1 (9-inch) deep dish & frozen pie shell
1 cup of chopped toasted pecans
1 tablespoon of maple syrup
And you will also need a steamer basket.

Put the peeled and cubed potatoes into steamer basket and place the steamer basket into a large pot of simmering water that is no closer than 2 inches from the bottom of the basket. Allow it to steam for 20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher and set them aside. Then, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Place the sweet potatoes in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat with the paddle attachment. Add yogurt, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, yolks, and salt, to your taste, and beat it until well combined. Pour the batter into the pie shell and place it onto a sheet pan. Sprinkle pecans on top and drizzle with maple syrup. YUMM.

You should bake it for 50 to 55 minutes or just until the custard reaches 165 to 180 degrees. Remove from the oven and cool. Remember to keep refrigerated after cooling.

this is my moms famous recipe.Old-Fashioned Sliced SweetPotato Pie

Ingredients:

pastry for a 9-inch double crust pie
3 medium-size SweetPotatoes (about 2 1/4 pounds total)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1 tablespoon butter, cut into bits

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a 9-inch pie plate with 1 layer of pastry, set aside.

Wash, peel and cut SweetPotatoes into 1/4-inch slices. Combine 1 cup of water and the salt into a large saucepan. Add SweetPotato slices. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer until SweetPotatoes are just barely tender when pierced, about 5 minutes. Drain slices, then rinse them with cold water until they are cool to touch. Drain slices well, transfer them to a large mixing bowl.

To SweetPotatoes, add sugars, lemon juice, flour and pumpkin pie spice. Toss gently with a spatula until slices are evenly coated. Spoon SweetPotatoes into pastry-lined pie plate, dot top of potatoes with butter. Place top pastry over filling and crimp top and bottom pastries together to make decorative edge. Cut 3 to 4 slits in the top to allow steam to escape.

Bake in 425 degrees F. oven until crust is browned and SweetPotatoes are tender when pierced, about 50 minutes. (If edges of crust start to brown too quickly, drape lightly with strips of foil. Cool pie on wire rack at least 1 hour. Serve warm or cool

They all look like good recipies, but try adding some molasses, substituting for some of the sugar
