6 sweet potatoes
6 teaspoons canola oil
2 -3 cups white sugar (to your preferred sweetness)
1 cup brown sugar (to your preferred sweetness)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon nutmeg
¹⁄₂ cup of melted butter

directions

To prepare Sweet Potatoes:
With the oil cover the sweet potatoe skin with the oil 1 teaspoon =1 sweet potatoe.
Poke holes in the sweet potatoe on all sides with a fork.
Place on a cookie sheet and bake @ 375 degrees for about an hour or until the sweet potaotes are mushy to touch.
Take them out of the oven and let cool. Once cooled the skin has to be peeled. It will peel off very easily to be careful not to tear up the sweet potatoe.
Once they are all peeled put in a big bowl and with an electrical mixer start blending the sweet potatoes.
Blend all wet ingredients together except the egg whites.
Blend all dry ingredients together. The potatoes will be a little heavier than pudding consistency.
Once all blended taste to adjust sugar sweetness to your liking.
Next beat egg whites until you have high peaks.
Fold in egg whites . Potoaotes will fluff up with air. ( Don't mix the potatoes will flatten).
Pour potatoes into pie crusts and bake @ 350 degrees for 45 minuets. You'll start to see dark brown areas on the top of the pies.
Take out let it cool.
Once cool serve with cool whip. Yummy!
