I was taught by a 89 year old man named Mr charley, my neighbor , he said the larger sweet potatoes has more strings in them , but the smaller to medium Sweet potatoes has little to no strings . Thank you Mr Charley for that & for all the rides to the grocery store , RIP Mr charley .
Another thing I do is make my own vanilla extract. I found that vanilla extract in the store is extremely high for a very small bottle. It’s so easy to do. All you need are vanilla beans and vodka. I take a large mason jar and add 10-12 Madagascar vanilla beans to the jar and add vodka to cover the vanilla beans (first split the beans so they are opened up). After eight weeks, the vanilla is ready to use. If you use several mason jars, you will always have vanilla extract on hand. While you’re using one jar, you have other jars waiting to be used. And the good thing is, the longer you have them sitting, the better the extract is. The main expense is the vanilla beans. They’re not cheap but if you buy in bulk, you’ll come out better. I use the Madagascar beans because, to me, they are plumper and make a better extract. I haven’t had to buy vanilla extract for several years now.
Great tip! I’ve been making my own vanilla extract exactly the same since the beginning of the Pandemic. I waited 6 months before using though. (Personal Preference) I still have beans in a rotating jar from 2020 & 2021. I also prepare at least two jars per year always in rotation. I’ve dried some of my vanilla beans and put them in a big jar of sugar and I use that for baking cookies and pound cake. It will definitely level up your baking flavors in all your baked goods. Try it, you will Never go back to buying vanilla extract again.
This is 2023 and I have watched this video every year since it posted and I crack up like I have never seen it🤣🤣🤣 I agree with everybody else y’all need a sitcom for real
I Just Love Watching You & Hubby/Dude #1. You Are So Good Together & Comical, Both Of You Can Cook & That's Alway's A Plus In A Marriage. Thank You Ms. Donna For Your UA-cam Video's, They Are Such A Blessing, Especially To Those Of Us Who Don't Really Know How To Bring It Together In The Kitchen. When I Look At The Outcome Of Your Food, My Mouth Water's & I'm Ready To Dive In And Eat With You.😋😂 May The LORD Continue Blessing You & Your Family, Happy Holiday's.🙏🏽🥰🌹🕊️
I use whole nutmeg and grate my own because store bought ground spices will lose strength and greatly affects your finished product! But its important to note the spice each cook uses should be to taste preference!
Your husband is so funny, but you be serious about that cooking and I understand why, your food looks good! My Daddy was playful like that with my Mom, I miss my Mom and Dad! My Mother was from down South and she didn’t measure her ingredients either and she was a Great Cook! Everybody loved her food and she cooked a lot for the Church and other events for the Church and they really enjoyed her food. We, the Family miss her and her cooking!!! You put a lot of effort and love in that cooking you do! May “GOD” Bless You, Your Husband And Family!!!
I love how you said you didn’t want to talk over the mixer. I would definitely eat your cooking because you’re sooooooooo clean and safe in the kitchen.
Hey Donna ,good morning I just woke up and was looking at some old video and came across your and I Bake my Sweet potato Also because, when you boil them it takes All the nutrients out and Baking makes them Sweeter and also I put a little rum and brandy flavor in them ,try and let me. know what you think. . . .its really delicious Rita Wade in texas
Remind me of my grandmother's thank you so much for bringing back good memories your husband so funny y'all are wonderful couple could not even fix their wives breakfast I'm proud of you girl we got a good thing
Donna I miss my home in North Carolina! I Do! Thanks GOD FOR MY MAMMA TOO! SHE WAS A WONDERFUL COOK AND MY TEACHER! T BANK YOU FOR BEING YOU! Jackie Fisher Titusville Florida
I love your tip whipping the carnation milk in with the eggs together in the measuring cup (or even in a separate mixing bowl). That is a great tip! I never seen an online video (not even by professional chefs) do that. I will be definitely doing that for myself when making sweet potato pies.
I love my mom's sweet potato pies also, haven't tasted anyone's like hers either 😋. On holidays , the people in the community, would come over for her pies, our family was of 12 people. Most of the pies 🥧I have tasted of people, always used too much nutmeg, which over powers a pie with too much, the same with stuffing, too much sage. Mom's was perfect 🥰💞
PLEASE NEVER TAKE THIS VIDEO OF YOURS DOWN! I LOVE IT! YOU GUYS HAVE ME LAUGHING 😅. And every year for thr past few years when Thanksgiving comes around I look for this video in particular. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just wanted to say that this is the first time I've seen your show and I just love it and your husband is loving you so much, it's great to see people so happily in love.
It's a beautiful thing to see you and your husband makes my day it is just so refreshing to see the love the laughter that is so important to have in a relationship when two people can laugh together that's when you know it works it works it always works when you can laugh together may God continue to bless your union
My family love for me to cook the blueberry pound cake at all times my son-in-law loved for me to cook the pies he's still two of them every time I cook them in the kitchen now cooking pies and cake the cake for the pastor this morning thank you Miss Donald love you keep up the good word I watch you everyday I made several cakes and pies I enjoy watching you I love you and God bless you
Thank you... These ingredients and the methods are the same ones my mom used. You are the only one I have found to make sweet potato pies like mama. Even the pie crust... she did not use deep dish, probably because that's all our market carried. I am making pies this year with two changes...I want to use heavy cream instead of carnation and grate fresh nutmeg. I appreciated this video.
Thank you Dude #1 for making your wife's breakfast. I remember my mom's sweet potato pies, and I ate my slices with my hand, no utensils needed. Beautiful memories of our moms. God bless.
Im a 70's teenager.. I saw happy black couples, husband and wives all the time.. When you really love someone and vice versa,and they're for you.. then you're happy with them.. Oh and can't nobody throw down in the kitchen like us..Rare otherwise.. And Southern cooks are The Cook of Cooks!
It Nothing Like Your Wonder Home 🏘️.. Ya Are Two Happy And Wonderful Couples!! Thank For Sharing This Delicious Sweet Potato Pie Menu And The How It Make The Sweet Potato Pie 🥧.. And By The Way Good Sweet Potato Pie.. PS:. I'm Getting Hungry Right Just By Watching This Video!! Keep The Videos Coming.
Looks so yummy. I like making my own pie crust. To keep the edges from turning dark or burning. I cut foil...turn it to make a curve and tuck it around the edges....works every time for a nice golden crispy crust.
Awww your husband is so sweet the way he was dancing at the end while eating his pie that’s when you know someone is a real foodie. Thank you for sharing your recipe ❤️
Yummy, from the first bite , U know if it is mmmm good... The way that you started with the baked potatoes, and your choice of ingredients... No doubt those pies are,, scrumptious....amen DINOMITE
You and your husband are awesome❤️ I'll have to try your sweet potato pie recipe. I use brown sugar myself and condensed evaporated milk and maybe one cup of white sugar according to taste, again that's me 😉 Bless your home and your family. This is 10/29/2023 we are BLESSED. OH! I must go online to find your aunt, Paula Dean's stand mixer 🥰🙏🏽
Hi Donna, I remember watching your video a few years ago and I enjoyed yours best because as you were cooking, the pies, you reminded me of myself and the best narrator, you took your time and were very courteous while you were explaining what your were doing and I do appreciate that, so with that being said, keep em coming, I am happily subscribing to your channel. May God bless you and your family. HAPPY THANKSGIVING 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Trying to figure 🤔😕🙄 out why people are saying 5 cuts of sugar is too much. She's making 4 pies 🥧= 4pounds of sweet potatoes. It's really 2 cups of sugar for 2 pies . She also said this is the way her family likes it. I'm quite sure she's done this a thousand times. So Season to your own taste. So before you add the 5th cup of sugar just taste to see if sweet enough. This is a great recipe and I haven't tried this one yet but I do have my own version but this one caught my eye 😆🤣😂🙏😇♥️
I'm back for the second year in a row for your sweet potato pie recipe! I had been looking for a recipe that used the exact same ingredients that my mom used for her pies, and I found yours. She made her pies by taste, so every year, that would be our time to put together a recipe. She's been gone for 2 1/2 years and this time of year brings back so many memories. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
I just came upon your page and I am so happy I did! Not only is your cooking delicious but your husband and you are adorable 💕 thanks for making my day ...many blessings to you and your husband
Thank you Mrs Donna for sharing Your Beautiful Mothers Sweet Potato Recipie. I am using it right now to finally make 12 pies I promised to make my family for Christmas. I just wanted to share a great hack I learned from watching Juani House for Christmas and observed her Beautiful Mother putting all the sweet potatoes in her "Blender" and it removed All Of The Potatoe Strings. Love Your achanel.
He is just too funny and look at your expressions I recognize those expressions when husband is in the kitchen and he had all morning he needs to just move aside and let you do your thing your expressions are priceless I just love you to death all praises thank you so much for sharing I humbly appreciate you and your silly husband LOL y'all look beautiful people 🙏🏾❣️ Continue To Stay Safe Happy and Healthy Many Blessings and Much Love-n-Peace 💜☮️💯😇🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💙❣️

you guys look great! I can tell you take care of him when he needs the Good Good! I miss being married to a Black Woman.. tThank you for the video. I just subscribed
My Recipe is pretty much like yours. I bake the potatoes and I use a mixer for the same reason as you. I grate my own nutmeg to be fresh and I make my own vanilla. The one difference I do is add fresh orange juice from a Navel orange and I grate a tiny bit of the peel. My family loves it and it brightens the flavor of the potatoes. Thank you for sharing your family recipe. It's so precious to have those memories of holidays past. May your family enjoy the best of the season while you spend time with loved ones !
THIS sweet potato pie recipe is the absolute best! I made Two last week and they didn’t last 2 days. I’ll be making more next week. Thanks for sharing. 😉
ok let me just say yall two gave me life!! yall are two cute together! thanks so much for yall mama recipe Imma try it next time! oh Imma now triggered to checkout the rest of yall videos lol
Heyyyyy there LaRaya!!!! Thanks so much for watching our videos! We're just this crazy couple who love each other and our children tremendously and keep one another laughing allllllllllllll...... well MOST of the time! LOL! Thanks for stopping by!!!
Sister Donna I love the way you and your husband show so much love to each other and to your family I love your recipes especially your eager and milk cake I made it for my niece birthday and it went over big with the church members love always keep cooking with love and keep God in your life. EJ
I love watching you and your husband when he gets in your way. He is very hilarious and so funny. Thanks for sharing your food videos. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Thank you for sharing your family recipes. I loved seeing your husband in the background interrupting in a good, loving way.This made the video more enjoyable. Please enjoy each other in the kitchen. Thank you!!
You did that. I was beginning to doubt that your crust would brown when you didn't pre bake it, but it turned out beautifully. I will use your baking method next time. Thanks for the video.
Hi Mrs. Donna! I love watching you, your recipes and I love when you first come on and say; hey Everrrrrrrrrrrrrrybody! I say that is cool. That's exactly what I told my husband just a few minutes ago to get out of my way, LOL. Hope you guys have a blessed holiday. Love❤❤❤💌💌💌
I do not consider myself to be a “good” cook because I HATE cooking! I like to eat so I am forced to cook and there are some recipes I have mastered and continue to tweak to make better and others I leave alone as I prepare them. Want to share what I learned in home economics in high school MANY years ago-that there are specific measuring tools to be used when following a recipe. The cup you used for measuring sugar is actually for measuring liquids. I do not like excessively sweet sweet potato pie. I would have used the cups for measuring solids🙂
Ahhite, Donna! Hope you had a good holiday this year. We did, partly thanks to your excellent sweet potato pie thing. We followed your recipe, made two pies, and they were the star of the show! Tasty! Also, you are so witty with your husband, like the black version of Sonny and Cher while cooking a variety of southern foods. We are from Conroe, TX, and it reminds us of the old days.
Mrs. Donna, I love watching your channel, the chemistry between you and your husband is unmatched. ❤ I followed your instructions last night, and we are already one pie down. So delicious. Your potato pie will be my special guest for thanksgiving. Thank you for your content, and keep going.
I love all of your recipes I love the way you put them together I love the patient you have with showing step by step in everything you fix. God bless you keep on cooking loving and living for the Lord you and your husband. EJ
I love eating sweet potato pie, but the strings were always a problem for me so I slice, quarter and boil my potato's in water to eliminate the strings altogether. Baking sweet potato's is a great way to retain their original sweetness and flavor so I'll definitely be using this method going forward. Thanks!
If you have an Instant Pot or something similar (Instant Pot being a brand name), you can cook your sweet potatoes in that, so you don't have to worry about having excess water in the sweet potatoes by boiling them. They get placed on the trivet at the bottom of the pot, about an inch of water at the bottom, under the trivet, and then cook them. They're basically steamed.
What I love the most about your baking is that there is so much love and gentleness in your teaching. So many women bake with the, “mines is the best and everyone else’s is horrible,” stank attitude and it turns me off. I love the kindness that exudes from your videos ❤️❤️❤️ It makes me want to learn from you!
Great job, that is how I like my pies, and it reminds me of holiday cooking with my mother. I can't wait for more recipes, love ya girl and thanks for sharing,,,..
I absolutely love you two, and I can’t wait to try your recipe. Thank you for your recipes and the laughs. Best wishes for a wonderful holiday season. Stay healthy and safe.
Thank you for your recipe!! This is my first time making a sweet potato pie, I usually make apple pies or cakes. Your recipe was easy and very detailed!! Btw: I loved how your husband would throw in his skits!! Have him in your videos to throw in a splash of humor, great balance!!
I was taught by a 89 year old man named Mr charley, my neighbor , he said the larger sweet potatoes has more strings in them , but the smaller to medium Sweet potatoes has little to no strings . Thank you Mr Charley for that & for all the rides to the grocery store , RIP Mr charley .

You did that. I was beginning to doubt that your crust would brown when you didn't pre bake it, but it turned out beautifully. I will use your baking method next time. Thanks for the video.
I'm using it right now. Pies are baking up beautifully.
Happy Thanksgiving 2020. I love their energy.

Oh I love your style of cooking. It's hard for me to measure anything. I'm from the south also.
I love your style of cooking. Everything always looking so delicious
I agree they keep you locked in and the comedy is so cute 🥰
Your husband is the greatest he adds so much joy to your videos and you explain and cook with such enjoyment
God be with you both
Hi Mrs. Donna! I love watching you, your recipes and I love when you first come on and say; hey Everrrrrrrrrrrrrrybody! I say that is cool. That's exactly what I told my husband just a few minutes ago to get out of my way, LOL. Hope you guys have a blessed holiday. Love❤❤❤💌💌💌
Great video! Your interaction is so real and funny. Hope you have a blessed Thanksgiving!
Thank you Goldeelox! Happy Blessed and Thanksgiving to you and yours as well!
💞💞💞💞💞😘😘😘😘
Oh yes one of the thing you are always in my prayers
I don't put lemon in mine either! Also, I agree either the roasting of the potatoes. When you boil them it can make the pie watery.
I'm so glad I found you and gonna make some of these delicious recipes you'll are a funny couple 🍗🍨🙏🏾😀
I'm sooooo glad you found us too!!!😍🥰🥰🥰
I do not consider myself to be a “good” cook because I HATE cooking! I like to eat so I am forced to cook and there are some recipes I have mastered and continue to tweak to make better and others I leave alone as I prepare them. Want to share what I learned in home economics in high school MANY years ago-that there are specific measuring tools to be used when following a recipe. The cup you used for measuring sugar is actually for measuring liquids. I do not like excessively sweet sweet potato pie. I would have used the cups for measuring solids🙂
The correct way to make a sweet potato pie....nutmeg....nice and golden....
Love in kitchen...makes the food EVEN BETTER...
Ahhite, Donna! Hope you had a good holiday this year. We did, partly thanks to your excellent sweet potato pie thing. We followed your recipe, made two pies, and they were the star of the show! Tasty! Also, you are so witty with your husband, like the black version of Sonny and Cher while cooking a variety of southern foods. We are from Conroe, TX, and it reminds us of the old days.
This made my day. Feel like I'm right there in the kitchen too. Love Thanksgiving and breakfast too!
Mrs. Donna, I love watching your channel, the chemistry between you and your husband is unmatched. ❤ I followed your instructions last night, and we are already one pie down. So delicious. Your potato pie will be my special guest for thanksgiving. Thank you for your content, and keep going.
I love all of your recipes I love the way you put them together I love the patient you have with showing step by step in everything you fix. God bless you keep on cooking loving and living for the Lord you and your husband. EJ
He did the happy dance when he got that pie. Can't wait to try your recipe.
I swear y’all’s two energy is just beautiful…
I love eating sweet potato pie, but the strings were always a problem for me so I slice, quarter and boil my potato's in water to eliminate the strings altogether. Baking sweet potato's is a great way to retain their original sweetness and flavor so I'll definitely be using this method going forward. Thanks!
If you have an Instant Pot or something similar (Instant Pot being a brand name), you can cook your sweet potatoes in that, so you don't have to worry about having excess water in the sweet potatoes by boiling them. They get placed on the trivet at the bottom of the pot, about an inch of water at the bottom, under the trivet, and then cook them. They're basically steamed.
Always string the potatoes after cooking them:
Putting the blender on the potatoes after boiling or baking to pull out strings,then add ingredients
Thank you for showing me how to make that delicious pie.I love your channel. God Bless you and your family
What I love the most about your baking is that there is so much love and gentleness in your teaching. So many women bake with the, “mines is the best and everyone else’s is horrible,” stank attitude and it turns me off. I love the kindness that exudes from your videos ❤️❤️❤️ It makes me want to learn from you!
These are my husband’s favorite pie. I’ve never made them but will try now!
Thanks for the recipe.
Beautiful couple, Donna I love your recipes and I have made several of your recipes .
Great job, that is how I like my pies, and it reminds me of holiday cooking with my mother. I can't wait for more recipes, love ya girl and thanks for sharing,,,..
It's a pleasure to watch you cook. Your husband is a hoot! Give him credit for the breakfast!
I absolutely love you two, and I can’t wait to try your recipe. Thank you for your recipes and the laughs. Best wishes for a wonderful holiday season. Stay healthy and safe.
I still love this show by this family on cooking in the kitchen. By a great cook and her husband " Mikey the tast test ".
Oh how I enjoyed your video and home cooking! Thank you so much
Thank you for your recipe!! This is my first time making a sweet potato pie, I usually make apple pies or cakes. Your recipe was easy and very detailed!! Btw: I loved how your husband would throw in his skits!! Have him in your videos to throw in a splash of humor, great balance!!
I really like the roasted potatoes and the mixer!
Great job, I use condensed milk and you don’t need a lot of sugar, thanks for the tip about the crust👍🏽
How much condensed milk per pie? ☺️
@@spage6712 I don’t measure just taste until I like it
@@spage6712 I don’t measure just use according to your taste, pour a little and taste the batter until you like it.
"I'mma need you to quit banging on that pan! Okay baby, I'm sorry. I'm making breakfast."
I almost fell out 😂
You give good advice on prep and buying off the self
You two are adorable. I enjoy both of your channels. God bless.
