Make this recipe a recipe that people in that category can eat. categories: ['dairy_free'], recipe: preheat oven to 350, and spritz a one-quart baking dish with cooking spray. cook the sweet potato in whatever way you prefer, so that they are tender enough to mash. when the sweet potato chunks are cool enough to handle, mash until completely smooth. add remaining ingredients to sweet potatoes (except for pecans), and continue mashing until everything is incorporated evenly. turn the mixture into a prepared baking dish and top with pecan halves. bake 20-25 minutes, until top is slightly brown. note: you can prepare the whole thing in advance and refrigerate it, then pop it into the oven right before the meal. increase cooking time by ten minutes.

Target recipe: boil until tender, peel, and mash sweet potatoes. mix sugar, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. add molasses and sweet potatoes; beat well. stir in half and half, egg yolks, and sherry. beat the egg whites until stiff, fold into mixture, and pour into the pie shell. put into a preheated 425 degree oven. reduce heat to 375 and bake about 35 minutes. the pie will be brown and set in the middle. serve warm or cold with whipped cream. ** if no alcohol is wanted, simply delete it from the recipe but the taste will be completely different.
