Squash probably would be too, but I wouldn't use both. You'll have better results with just one, especially if making your own puree, because the consistency will be the same. Somewhat like buying skeins of yarn from the same dye lot. This is a very, very good pie and amazes people because it's just different enough.

Do you see any drawbacks to using steamed mashed sweetpotatoes in place of the pumpkin? I try not to use canned, and haven't had a chance to cook down the several I've collected after Halloween. How about butternut squash and sweet potato mix? I'm looking forward to trying this. Oh boy….this sounds great. Do you see any drawbacks to using steamed mashed sweetpotatoes in place of the pumpkin?

I’m looking forward to trying this.
