- Mashed White Potato Pie Recipe
Can you make sweet potato pie with regular potatoes?
Thanks for watching Everyone! I’ve been really busy this week, and haven’t had a chance to transcribe the recipe to this description box yet. You can still find it at the end of the video.
#LeGourmetTV #GlenAndFriendsCooking
For a savory option, leave out the sugar and add some cheese, a little sour cream, caramelized onions, cooked bacon, salt, and pepper.
Maybe throw in some spinach...
Now you've got a loaded baked potato with a crust!
Which does not sound bad!
Now...
How do I make that crust gluten free so everyone can eat it this Thanksgiving?!
hmmmmm... can I somehow use crushed potato chips for a crust?
All the Yes!
@@gardengatesopen a mix of crushed pork rinds and rice flour maybe?
Taste of home has a pretty good recipe.

Sounds like a quiche.
Oooh... sad! When told to choose between vanilla and nutmeg, the answer (at least in my house) is BOTH! 😀
Always both, and then I look to see what other spices I'm feeling, too. Grabing the cloves, cardamom, almond extract, maybe caraway seeds.
Oh, now I think the savory version should have caraway seeds...
I said the same thing and @Stephanie Morgan about the savory.....very Russian/Eastern European flavor profile...I’d add some leeks or sautéed red onion to it.......almost potato leek soup in a “quiche”
Absolutely!
I would've used both too because why not
@@bethgoldman2560 I often get potato and onion piroshky from one of the Eastern European bakeries around here. That would be really tasty. Potato and Broccoli would be good too... so many choices!
Had to laugh about Townsends reference.
Those disturbed looks when you ate it haha!
"It's just mashed potatoes in a crust". I love Jules!
For a savoury option, sweated down onions and a bit of garlic. Great with roast beef.
EXACTLY what I was thinking! And its only a few steps away from being a Shepherds Pie! YEAH! Another classic video!
I'm thinking of putting sausages into it too with the onion and garlic
Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa WHOA! I literally had to back up and pause on “PRUNE WHIP PIE!”
THAT. SOUNDS. DELICIOUS!!!
Have a good day everyone
Thankyou. You too :)
DITTO 💋💋💋🤩😇🤩🤩😇🔥🔥😇🎊🎉🇨🇱🙏🇨🇱🙏🍯🎂🇺🇸🎁❤️🎂💕🇺🇸😉💣:))):)!!! YUUMMM LOOKS AND I BET IT SMELLS DIVINE:)!!!
You too!!!
WOW that Townsend reference!
I know, I laughed out loud.
"Cheese cake" on Townsends' is similar. Cheese in this case refers to the texture. m.czcams.com/video/b1NOup3RvOw/video.html
Wonderful!
Watching this gave me an idea for leftover thanksgiving food. Takeout the sugar & vanilla put in leftover turkey & add a little bit of leftover gravy bake it then top it with cranberry sauce. Call it Thanksgiving Pie.
Adding a bit of Cinnamon might be a nice option I would think.
Like other suggested a salty flavored version could be a winner, in place of the sugar just add salt, onion and garlic powder, black pepper and cheese.
That's a perfect breakfast to me!
Or skip the salt but add diced cooked ham
I love your channel. Very authentic, not fussy, and not over edited. I feel like I could be right there with you.
I absolutely love the Sunday morning/"Old Cookbook Show"! This is a very unique recipe. I've never seen it, but I have heard of it before. My grandmother told me that her mother would make what she called, "Mashed Potato Pie". Thank you for making this. I'm gonna try it out for sure.
I am looking through a collection of Amish recipes published in 1966 called Pennsylvania Dutch Cook Book of Fine Old Recipes. It has a Berks County Potato Custard Pie. It’s flavored with lemon. The eggs are separated so the whites can be beaten until “rounded peaks are formed.” It’s served warm.
Always love the faces & the moment of suspense upon the tasting. This one did not disappoint. Thanks, y’all!
Excellent comments from everyone. I would try savoury as well. Weirdly this made me think of the book The Guernsey literary and potato peel pie society
OMG....You guys cracked me up with that first taste 😆
One of my favorite things about your videos is the honest unscripted appraisal of the results frequently the visual portion of the tasting is priceless regardless of the outcome. I believe this the only channel/ video series that i have seen that does that. I appreciated because in the real world sometimes things go wrong and sometimes you have happy accidents that lead you in the right direction, keep the good work 👍
WOW! We wanted to try this so we used what we had on hand at my little coffeeshop/bakery. We used instant potatoes with butter, (omitted extra butter), vanilla and pumpkin pie spice. We can't decide which is best ... hot out of the oven or cold .. either way, we just keep going back for more!
Awesome concept. Great base with so much potential for flavorings:
- maple syrup
- spices (nutmeg, cardamom, ginger, allspice, clove, anise, etc)
- dried/candies fruits
- chocolate
- honey
- berry jam etc etc
Or go savory like you said
- since it’s white potato, make a gnocchi pie. Add a tomato sauce layer, basil, garlic, olive oil
- any pot pie flavors (chicken, turkey, beef etc with a mirepoix etc)
- prosciutto/guanciale/bacon/ham with cheese
With such a simple base, the possibilities are quite literally endless!
Awesome channel Glen. I love what you do. Thank you.
I love that it's kind of a weird thing. And I love your honest reactions!
With a pie that bland, I would have used the nutmeg.
Well made mashed potato is THE most sublime umami taste and texture experience. So go with the cream, but also cheese, bacon, tomato, onion, mushroom, spinach, and yum yum yum!
Love the Townsend’s ref! Your show, Glen, and Townsend’s have been great therapy during this pandemic. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
My mom use to make those but they where savoury. It was a bottom and top lard pie crust. In with the potatoes was garlic and onion , if we had money she would add a can of salmon. It was wat she made it at the end of the month when times where hard. And to this day it is super comfort food, to be eaten with green homemade ketchup and or chowchow.
Back in the 50’s my Aunt backed pies and cakes almost daily out of her Eastern Shore of Maryland farm kitchen. She delivered them to the local restaurants and convenience stores for a little money. She made a wonderful white potato pie, very similar to a sweet potato pie. It was one of my favorites. Wish I had her recipe.
Almond extract in there would be lovely
Thanks for the shout out to Townsends. Once the Corona should have a conversation about interpreting old recipes. Because you both do it so well.
Hello Glenn and Julie. Love you guys channel.
My mother used to make white potato pie, and she used nutmeg and vannila in her recipe.
I love the little tidbits of history you give with these old recipes.
My family has made a savory potato pie for years. It is a recipe from my mother, but I'm not sure where she got it-quite possibly from a long-time family friend who is the daughter of Italian immigrants, born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. It has become a Thanksgiving holiday staple.
2 cups mashed potato
1 lb ricotta cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
2 beaten eggs
Garlic
Salt & Pepper
Paprika
Rosemary
1/2 cup chopped scallions
Grated Parmesan and/or Romano cheese
Makes one large/deep pie. Mix all the ingredients well and pour into a standard par-baked pastry crust (our family often uses a premade crust to use up leftover mashed potatoes). Spread the grated cheese(s) on top before baking. sauce.
I remember White Rose potatoes were common at the markets here in California when I grew up, 50's and 60's. Delmonico potatoes use nutmeg, it goes well in savory or sweet dishes. This pie has real possibilities I think.
Your faces were priceless as you tried to figure out what you were tasting!
i would have added the nutmeg along with the vanilla and maybe used maple syrup, molasses, or brown sugar instead of the white sugar for a more complex flavor
#Glen, thanks for the pizza stone tip
I'm on board with a savoury option, maybe pack in the fillings and make it like a quiche
Load it up, sub in some sour cream for cream, add cheddar, bacon and chive and then you have a loaded potato pie
@@Megaman915 call me when it's ready!
@@gardengatesopen only issue is that I am abysmal at making pie crusts. I'll be trying it again soon though lol.
I would bet there was more spicing/flavoring going on, even in a depression kitchen, if my family is any indication. My grandmothers used cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice and vanilla for sweets. Salt, pepper, sage, bay leaf, mustard seed, and dill for savory. Well, except for Uncle Henry, he decided that since the price of pepper went up he wasn't buying it any more.
One thing I've learned from trying recipes from Townsend's (the CZcams channel), is that nutmeg and sack (sherry) are a really delicious combination.
I am intrigued just by the reactions of the taste test. I might have to try this just to satisfy my curiosity now!
I like how honest you are about a recipe 👍🏻
Simple with a million ways to take it! Going to do one this afternoon and go savoury! Stay safe down there.
Honestly, I did read the title of this video properly before clicking, missed the pie part completely & then was so confused by the sugar & pie crust. Really interesting though. Thanks Glen! 👍
My mother used to make white potato pie and it was delicious. Hers tasted like sweet potato pie😋😋
I have a recipe that calls for mashed potatoes and ends up with something that tastes like a Mounds candy bar, so this pie recipe has potential. Never underestimate the power of the potato!
Coconut will help with the texture, I think. As for savoury, it's a potato quiche. Add really sharp cheese and scallions.
I've watched a couple hundred of your videos. This is easily the funniest so far.
Potato, cheese and onions pies are commonly eaten in England. They are made with either mashed, sliced or cubed potatoes. I’m assuming this is not the case in Canada. So a savoury option of this pie would work! Love watching your videos.
A great recipe to use up some leftovers. My Grandmother used to do something similar with farmers cheese and leftover mashed potatoes in a casserole dish. We called it Grandma’s Cheesecake.
I wonder how many people are gonna ask about that "Prune Whip Pie" right below that recipe. 🤔
I was looking at that too. I love prunes!
I'm always giving those other recipes on the page the ol' looky-loo 👀 !!!
Here in Scotland we have some potato sweets that are still really popular, called Macaroon bars. They are mashed potatoes and sugar, covered in chocolate and usually some shredded coconut as well. Although I think they probably have way more sugar than this pie
You want to know how much of a local delicacy this is, I’ve moved down south for work and nobody here can fathom the concept of Macaroon. I on the other hand remember making Macaroon in Home Economics class in High School out of Smash powdered mash 😂
As someone who loves sweet potato pie, this pie looks and sounds disturbing.
😂
I agree with the savory idea. Roughly mashed potatoes with a few chunks left, some browned ground meat, and onions. Cheddar cheese on top, for the last ten minutes. Use shredded chicken, and a take on Chicken aka King, Bulk breakfast sausage, onion, bell pepper, and 6-eggs for about the last ten minutes or so, yolks still liquid to eat it hot, and fully set of you were going to have it cold for lunch.
I work on remote sites, and am always looking for lunch ideas beyond sandwiches. A slice of a savory version of this would be great. and, by the way I make savory cheese cakes with seasoned cracker crusts, and various meats as fillings.
Loved the video but the tasting was hilarious. Made this a very fun watch. Thanks for the laughs!
There used to be a restaurant in the Dayton, Ohio (Smithville) area a few years ago that sold a depression era recipe "white potato" pie. It used vanilla and nutmeg and was a little flatter than a pumpkin or sweet potato pie in volume but the flavor reminded me of a sweet potato pie. The owners said their mother (or grandmother, don't remember) made the pie during the depression with ingredients that they commonly had. I loved the result but sadly they disappeared and the recipe died with them and their business. If you like sweet potato pie, this was / is a winner!
I think I’d want to swap the vanilla extract for either coconut extract or lemon extract. It does make me want to try it, though!
Yeah, coconut extract and/or some shredded coconut would probably work really well with the potato.
Would love to see you make a Västerbotten Cheese Pie, a real treat here in Sweden. Also from the region I live in!
Hello Glen, I work in the oil industry and in the canteen today they served potato soup. I was amazed how good it was, can you teach us how to make that? Love your dedication and enthusiasm!
- Tor
@@Vedexent_ Awesome! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, can't wait to try it when I get back home.
My mom in Baltimore, MD use to make white potato custard on Thanksgiving and she used both vanilla and nutmeg.
GLEN, There is a pie, without the sugar. In the Southern US. It's made with a drained/browned mix of ground beef & sausage - you can add anything else you'd like. It's very nearly a "Pot Pie" & probably a riff off of that
I'll try this recipe including both nutmeg and vanilla. thanks
What a nice looking pie..I will try this...thanks
My grandmother’s (who would have had very young children in 1933) potato pie is a salmon and potato pie. Mashed potato, a can or leftover salmon, one egg, salt and pepper. Mix, bake, serve with a lemon butter sauce, parsley or ketchup. Perhaps there were two eggs, I don’t remember as I haven’t made it in over twenty years.
I watch almost every recipe and enjoy the channel A LOT. Today, you guys made me laugh out loud!
OK, I’ll make this my own: puts in category of “never make this”.
Love this channel. The potato pie with sour cream butter bacon bits covered with a parmesan,
I would say someone had left over mashed potatoes and said I need to make something with these so they don't go to waste.
I do not understand "leftover mashed potatoes"... :D
That's what bubble 'n squeak is for
I knew someone that would take leftover mashed potatoes, add confectioners sugar, and make a small 2-3 inch round pancake out of it, then put peanut butter in the center and roll them into a log, and then bake them like a cookie. Came out really good!
@@deementia6796 never had them with peanut butter but the other we always caller potato cakes. love those things. haven't had them in years.
Glen you and I had the same idea at the same moment (well the same moment in the timeline I was watching this) of leaving out the sugar.
I have a request. When I was a lad growing up in Northern Ontario, someone - not my Mother - made a carrot soup that was to die for. Normally I'd say that it was my Mother, because it WAS to die for and Mom was a tremendously excellent cook/baker, but she swears it wasn't her. I think it was our next door neighbour but sadly she hasn't been with us for a long time.
I know this soup was not creamy, wasn't pure liquid. There were very small chunks of carrot in it. It WAS a thick soup, not watery. If you come across this, or know of it, could you please make this recipe. Simple recipe I know but it was OH SO GOOD. Good enough to remain a warming memory after all these years.
Thanks.
I love the cross-CZcamsr reference! And I would have to go with Jon on this one and add the nutmeg -- along with the vanilla!
I've had this, it was good. It had all of those things but brown sugar and cinnamon. I knew a guy that sold dinners in NC. He always had it on the menu
Mashed potato in a pie is known as butter pie. In Preston, north England its a local 'delicacy'. It's just potato, onions, butter, and salt and pepper. Give it a go, it's really very nice
My friends ! It looks so delicious. Your cooking skills are amazing. Thank you for the good food.🧡
This is the first time I've seen a recipe besides my grandmother making this pie I loved it it tasted to me almost like a cheesecake texture
This recipe is very much like Lincolnshire Potato Cheesecakes. They are flavoured with grated lemon rind and sometimes have currants in.
Love the idea of the savory pie. Some cheese, pour some gravy on it. It would make an interesting side for Thanksgiving.
OH, I could see Julie really trying to sell the mashed potato in a crust... :D
Your Sunday show is quickly becoming part of my routine :) thank you so much for giving us something to look forward to before the dreaded Monday!
When I read the title of this video, my brain went the savoury route. I thought this would be some sort of potato-y kind of quiche, with herb and melted butter. I was quite wrong. I do really adore potatoes, so I still might give it a go.
MY FAVORITE SHOW!!!!! You inspire me with every episode!
i actually think glen's suggestion of making it savoury was spot on.
I think as a savory it would be a great dish for a buffet/potluck dinner. Maybe even increase and bake in a 9 x 13 pan, cutting into squares before setting out on the serving table. Seems like it would be easier for people to handle than regular mashed potatoes in that setting.
Cheese and potato pie was always on the menu when I was at school , you could add onions or sliced tomatoes too
There is a savory potato pie... at least where I live...it contains carmelized onions and American cheese... and it’s delicious! It’s eaten often during lent...
Glen's smile when he tasted it xD hahahaha
You're a braver man than I. I never drop eggs into other ingredients. One bad egg and you have to toss everything. I either use a separate bowl for the eggs or drop them first.
Never in a lifetime of cooking and using dozens of eggs a week - have I ever had a 'bad' egg.
Wow game changer
I feel like this white potato pie is popular in the northeastern region of the U.S. I remember seeing this for the first time in a 1970s film that was made in Baltimore, MD. For years I have been researching a good recipe to try. Thank you for posting this.
One thing I do a lot is I infused liquids with tea. I use black tea often, and I bet if you brew a black or chai tea into the milk/cream before adding it to the pie filling, you could have a whole array of flavors available to be added. Including more savory options.
Glad to be here so early on! Looks delicious already.
Really interesting recipe.
It gave me an idea for christmas dinner/lunch: side dish of single portion mashed potatoes in crust. Leave sugar and vanilla out, put butter instead of cream, some hard salty cheese, and here they are, they would look great too on the table 👍🏻
You should colab with Tasting History :) His channel is about historical cooking(obvisouly) and you have a depression era series. AND you both made election cake!
I would totally be on board with this suggestion!
I think I would leave out the sugar, add shredded beef, corn, white pepper and salt. Maybe a little horseradish? I’m not sure about that yet. Then serve it with brown gravy. You could call it pot roast pie. Or diced corned beef, and diced carrot would be good.
How am I the only comment (that I can find), who REALLY wants to see them make Prune Whip Pie???
Yours is the 2nd one ive seen lol
Yours is the 2nd one i saw :) so far
This is a Easternshore Maryland pie that blacks baked. I have family recipe from 1800's . You do need to add other spices. My relatives sell pies with our family recipe for events. And they are the number 1 seller.
Uhm take sugar out and add a bit honey instead. Maybe fried bacon, nutmeg, and maybe some spice such as cayenne pepper. Thinking something like spicy candied (million dollar) bacon in the potatoe pie would work but the pie would need to be less sweet. Really cool dish, thanks for sharing
I like it. It’s what you did with a cup of leftover mashed potatoes. It needed the nutmeg.
Mashed potato in a crust Hilarious. Your initial "taste Face" was priceless
I say vanilla and nutmeg. I'm intrigued by the simplicity of the ingredients, but I'm not sure of my expectations. It's worth a shot.
Cool recipe book! Glad you have lots of audience participation.
Crushed roast potato pie with chestnut and sage stuffing, baked with a crispy crust and drizzled in thick gravy and bread sauce.
I had the good fortune of visiting Finland a few years ago. While there, I had mashed potatoes with lingonberries. I'm wondering if that combo would work out in this pie?
@@shelldie8523 It's kind of a cranberry.
@@shelldie8523 the berry is close to a blueberry/pea in size. The berry is red and on the tart side, but was made with a slightly sweet sauce. I am thinking you could substitute the sugar for some Lingonberry jam/jelly (available here in the US), and keep the vanilla (or nutmeg, or both).
