Is sweet potato pie good when served at room temperature?

I want to serve it for shabbos lunch, & don't have a way to heat it up. Will it be good?

P.S. If anyone has a great recipe to share, I'd love that.

I think it's best warm or cold. but I love sweet potato pie and would eat it any which way!

yes, it will be good. I take it out so it gets to room temperature before serving on shabbos day.

we love it cold!

Thank you all for your help!

Rise above, thanks so much for the recipe, it is exactly what I was looking for.

2 questions:
Can this be made today for shabbos lunch or will it be better if it was made tomorrow?
Can I use a graham cracker crust?

Thanks so much.

You can for sure make it today- it lasts beatifully.

I would stick to a pie crust,

It's in the oven now & it looks delicious. Thanks so much!

I decided to be adventurous & use a graham cracker crust because that is what I had. I'll let you know how it turns out!

Your welcome Smile

I went through a couple until I got this one and I am hooked. Interesting to hear that it went well in graham Smile

I don't have non-diary creamer or any pareve milk at hand? Do you think I can use OJ as a substitute?

I personally would not use OJ, I don't know if it will set the same as a "milk." plus I think it will change the flavor completely. Just my opinion...maybe someone else knows better.

I would not use OJ, I would use water and maybe another egg white.
my recipe is a bit different anyway, no oil and more eggs, and we add cinnamon.

my family eats it hot, warm or cold (I dont care for it at all so I cant speak from personal experience)

Thanks guys! I did it anyway- I was too sick to even think. I hope it came out fine. (I usually taste the batter, but didn't) I can always blame in on DH if it doesn't because he left it in too long...lol! ( I went to bed and gave him instructions).
