When she said, "ranshe" that off", I knew that pie was gone be on point!

Our grandmothers are actual treasures. God bless her. She not just teaching a recipe, she teaching method.

Thank you Grandma Gloria. It's 2024 and we are still watching and learning from your videos. We appreciate you and may God bless you.

She make you feel like you’re watching your own grandma. Truly amazing.

Now this is what I’m talking about!! When I saw that grandma dress, I knew we would be alright!! We need to get this to 1 million views!

I teared up when she said "nutneg". She says it like my mom who just passed away in March. It's weird/funny things that can trigger emotions.

Who ever is recording, thank you for asking questions and clarifying everything for people like me. I always need reassurance and I appreciated you more than you know. Grandma Gloria thanks for sharing ❤

I’m two seconds in and the way you leaning on the counter I know I’m about to learn something!!!!

Grandma Gloria, I am 67 year old man and my favorite pie is still sweet potato pie. You are the first person I have seen other than my mother, put lemon in her SP pies. She called it her "secret" ingredient. When we would attend a family reunion or a Church Homecoming, everyone would get my mom's desserts first. I can still remember my paternal Aunts talking to her about why Her's tasted better than theirs. She passed away back in 2004, and out of the six kids, only my older sister, my younger sister, and I know the secret. I will pass it on to my 8 grandchildren. Great job on the video.

I love it! That’s right, let’s honor our elders by respectfully allowing them to pass along their time honored recipes, and the stories that go along with them. Don’t just come to eat, come to learn! 👏🏽❤🙏🏾🥰

I used GG's recipe last year and it was a BIG HIT!!! Getting the strands out is great! Let's get this video over a million this holiday season!!

Ms Gloria cared for my oldest son when he was in daycare. She was the only one who could get him to sleep. We miss you Ms Gloria 💓

I love all of the "hidden secrets" that Grandma Gloria tells us, like removing the strings, and adding extra eggs, and adding lemon juice and extra vanilla until it tastes like ice cream. I never knew about these things. Love you to the moon and back for this.

My mom's tip to avoid a lot of strings is to pick more rounded potatoes. The (length) longer the potatoes the more stringy the potatoes. Hope this helps.

I’m a 22 year old white college student in Utah, but I’m about to be making the meanest black southern grandma pies for my dorm

I absolutely love how she’s saying lemon & vanilla “Extra”

Everybody clicked on the older woman cause they know it’s gone smack !! 😌💅🏾

Btw Grandma Gloria is giving us family, a lot of us don’t have a grandma or never ever did in the first place. Thank you for sharing her with the world!!!❤❤❤

I remember when I first came across this video 3 yrs.ago.I been making my pies just the way she does in this video,everyone just love my pies. Thank you ,Mrs..Gloria my Jehovah God be with you.❤😅

She’s my grandma now. I enjoyed this ! Thank you grandma. I will be using your method next week. 💕

“Oh I’m sorry... I forgot what I was doing... ** too cute ** 😂🤣

She had me at “nut’n’egg” lol. I knew it was going to be a fantastic recipe as soon as I heard her pronounce nutmeg like my Madea! Love it! I made this recipe last year and it was amazing. My family loved it. Making it again this year. I’m so grateful for you taking the time to record this.

7/8/23: This was about the best sweet potato pie video I've ever seen. You were so down to earth, and your instructions were informative and right on point. (I didn't know about the strands or the lemon extract.) I felt like I was right there in the kitchen with you, but I wish I could have tasted your pie in the end. It looked so yummy! 🙂 Anyway, I'm on my way to the market in a few to get the pie crusts. I have everything else, so I'm on a mission. Thank you so much Grandma Gloria for this wonderful recipe! I'll let you know how mine turned out.

I was so engrossed in this, I felt like I was right there with her in the kitchen. Best EVER cooking video I have seen. Thank you Grandma Gloria! You're the grandma we all need!

I trust her pies. She could put a whole couch in that pie and I’d try it. 🤣. She is so soothing and the pies look so good. And did you hear the way she said “NE-VA!” 😂😂😂 YES!!!!

So many things I love about your video. Gloria is a genuine sweet lady! You didn’t hype up or try and hollywood your video. It’s 100% real. The most important ingredient is Ms. Glorias love, passion and knowledge of what she’s doing. I’m making a Grandma Gloria’s Sweet Potato Pie today. Thank you and God bless!

This was my first time making a pie. My grandmother not able to make them this year and I really love sweet potato pie. And I gotta say thank you soooooo much! This turned out better than good! I honestly can’t thank you enough.

Grandma Gloria wanted all the smoke, when she said" you'll never go back to Patties" No games to be played lol. That, thats down south in her. 💖

Used your recipe yesterday for Thanksgiving and my husband called it "award winning pie" thank you so much for sharing! Lemon extract...golden! 💡

Our elders are such a blessing ...so willing and happy to share knowledge and wisdom...the older I get the more I appreciate and reciprocate it❤❤❤...

Just like my momma used to make!! Since she passed I've been trying to perfect it and I think this is going to do it!! Thank you Grandma Gloria!

If it don't taste like ice cream, you need something else. Got it😂😂Teach us Grandma. Love her! Thank you Grandma Gloria😁

Love u Grandma ... I miss my Momo and my Momie after watching her.. how she exsplians everything so lovingly !! We must honor and treasure are elderly Black Family !!! They all we got

Second year in a row I've made this recipe for Thanksgiving and it is soooo good! Thank you Grandma Gloria, and thank you to the person in the comments that typed out the recipe!

This entire segment felt like a warm hug🥰I know this pie is delicious; and Grandma your mixing bowl is beautiful! You have a brand new subscriber💃🏽

The realist and most authentic video to learn from. She made the best pie without any editing for the audience. That’s REAL

This brought me back to my granny teaching me how to make this. Lol I about fell out when she said Nutneg and called the extract extra because my granny calls it that and no one's going to contest it lol. My granny's 97 now and we cook for her-not because she can't, but rather she taught us well. Cherish your elders 🥰!!

Grandma Gloria gives you measurements and that is what I need. I love you Granny. Thanks for being here when I need you. ❤️

I was looking at the thumbnails for a good Sweet Potato Pie Recipe, and when I seen Grandma Gloria's thumbnail this feeling came over me and I knew I had found my Recipe. God bless you Grandma Gloria.

I'm in tears she reminds me of my grandmother. That generation is sooo precious.

I just wanted to say thank you for sharing this invaluable information. This pie making technique is so important to be shared with future generations. When our love ones leave they take precious history and information with them. Again sincere thanks.

I made your sweet potato pies and dressing last year and everyone loves both. Doing it again this year. Thanks for blessing this family and God bless you and yours.

I saw this video last year. I accomplished my first sweet potato pies last year. Now they are a hit. Thank You Grandma Gloria for sharing your recipe🙌🏾

The moment I saw her I loved her ❤️❤️❤️❤️ She look like she gives the best hugs when you goin through 🥰

My grandmother, whose name is also Gloria, passed away last week. She was famous for her sweet potato pie in the church and family. She taught me what goes in it, but never knew any exact measurements lol. This is helpful. I'm gonna make her proud this Thanksgiving. Thanks for the video ❤

4years and still going strong mom this video lol here it is the day before thanksgiving and I thank you so much Grandma Gloria!!!!! My pies were delicious!!!

Thank you,Thank you, Grandma Gloria for sharing this recipe.I cooked for my family for Thanksgiving 2023 and it was a hit. They loved it ❤ 😊.

Thank you for this. My grandmother passed away in January of 2021. I am making her pie this time by myself. I was a little emotional watching because This part of the journey is with her being with me in spirit. Much love to you.

I feel like she everybody grandma or mom is wrapped into one person. I love her! I was watching this like I had a second chance to sit up under my grandmother and learn 😢 all praises to the Most High for our elders

Grandma knows what she is doing. Grandma did mention that she used 5 eggs, before being asked again how many eggs is using, lol. She said she would normally have larger sweet potatoes than the sweet potatoes she is using to make these pies and mentioned that because she has extra sweet potato batter, she is using a total of 5 eggs, opposed to 4 as she would normally use. I'm paying attention, because my grandmother never did like repeating herself twice and she had to repeat herself, that posed to be a problem, lol. Love this woman and her way of old school baking. Much respect!🔥🔥♥️🔥🔥

This gave me all the warm fuzzies!!! I don't know why I got teary-eyed at the end. It was just the most comforting thing I've seen in a while.

Older cooks always said your sweet potato pie should taste like ice cream, hidden pearls of wisdom from these Blessed women.

I’ve been watching this video every thanksgiving for a few years now. Her spirit brings me so much comfort. I just want to give her a big hug. I hope your doing well Miss Gloria Happy Thanksgiving 🥰

I KNOW that pie is GOODT. Thank you Grandma Gloria. National treasure. And thank you to the family that thought enough to film and share this gem

I love how she kept tasting it to see what was missing!! LIFE!!!

I was little when my Grandma Nancy passed. She was the real cook in the family. Thank you for bein my stand in Grandma, so I won't be embarrassed showin up with no bland sweet potato pie.

It's the best real video recipe I've ever seen as I was taught by my mother, who passed away 49 years ago

Came back for the second year to do this recipe. Added orange extract this time too! Appreciate you grandma Gloria! God bless you!

I am on this page today because my momma passed 2014 and her oldest sister ( The Cook) past in June...she was last left and I needed a good Ole Auntie recipe! Thank God for youtube ! May Mrs. GLORIA rest well!! Happy THANKSGIVING EVERYONE

Grandma Gloria I could kiss you, my Mom got dementia before I could get her sweet potato pie recipe and this taste like hers. Thank you so much.

Swedish farm women learning from the BEST !!! Absolutely love this tutorial !!! Thank you so much.

Thank you Grandma Gloria for your wisdom and willing to share..... love you for sharing the original homemade recipes.

I love that you constantly test for the correct consistency and flavoring which I don’t see many professionals doing. I’m sure that’s why you do have the best pies

I followed along with her making this pie...the end product was smooth...creamy...tasty...this is the BEST sweet potato pie I have ever made...plus the love that goes into it also💝

Thank you for this video Grandma Gloria reminds me of my mama, especially when she compares the batter to cake batter. My mama passed this time last year. I played this video last year and I’m doing it again because it makes me feel like I’m back the kitchen with my mama. Thank you for sharing Ms.Gloria with us. ❤

I absolutely love watching Grandma Gloria ❤️ She brings so much joy and so many memories when I think of the times I cooked with my granny!!

Because of Grandma Gloria I am confident I can get thru making my meal this year. She gives me hope 😁

I made 8 pies for Thanksgiving and my family is wanting to pay me and bring the ingredients for me to make them more. They told me it reminded them of their ggma's before she passed. Thank you for taking the time and recording this!

Stick a toothpick in the center and if you can pull it out clean it’s done. Let pies set overnight with a wax paper cover.

Thank you so much. My mother used to make hers the same way but she added carnation evaporated milk. I’m right with you grandma Gloria.

This is the first video I’ve seen of yours. I just want to say that this made me tear up a little bit. You look just like an older version of my mom. She passed away 3 yrs ago, but you literally look just like her. I showed my husband and my children this video and they were in shock! I wish there was a way I could send a picture of my mom. She made really good pies too. ☺️

Wow! I believe this was THE BEST! Thank you Grandma Gloria! This was a big hit on Thanksgiving! Learned something new about boiling and beating out the strands, and adding lemon extract. YUM! I also added some grated lemon zest (I needed the fresh lemon juice for something else.). I made the filling only since I'd already made 2 gluten free doughs and didn't want to make and roll another pie dough. The oven was at 350° since there was no crust. GG's note in a comment way down was: "Bake at 375 and do your first check 50 min. And when you see a glaze on top it is time to remove from the oven."

Thank you for showing me how to put all the extra love in my pies “new” grandma Gloria. Every year I come and watch you make these pies and I always learn more and more each year from grandma ❤❤❤❤❤

i made these this year best ive had perfection! thank you to Grandma Gloria’s family for continuing to bless us with her recipes.

I LOVED when you said... "I'm going to use Lemon extract, My Mother💛 taught me that!" {Nothing is more Pure* and that warmed my heart!😘🙏}

Sweet Potato Pie is my all time favorite and I thought nobody could do it like my daddy he could do some cooking and baking but you took me there my dad is gone on now 😥 and you Sho remind me of him and some wonderful memories Thank you Thank You God Bless You 🌹🙏🏽❤️ The Art of Baking

Thank you, Grandma Gloria for the wonderful pie making demonstration and lesson. Looks delicious!!

Your personality is inviting, warm, loving and pleasant. Thank you Ms Gloria for sharing your recipe with us, I can’t wait to give this recipe a try. God bless you ♥️🙏🏽

I came back this year for this video and immediately remembered why I used your recipe. It's the quiet confidence for me.

Just makes me sad that I don’t have my grandma around to show me how to cook the right way! Thank you looks amazing😊

Thank you grandma Gloria!! You helped a sister out!😀 God bless you and keep sharing those recipes!!!🙏🏾🙏🏾

I love they way she explains what she's looking for in the texture and taste before putting it all together and cooking. Sure wish my grandmother was here to share her love of cooking with me. Thank you for sharing your Grandma.

The best sweet potato pie is to bake sweet potatoes and keeping all of the sweetness and the natural flavor I learned this from my old lady don't boil but baked sweet potatoes and you will taste the difference

This was like watching Big Mamma in the kitchen. Heart warming. My God bless you and yours. Thanks

Ms. Gloria, you are an amazing teacher. Thank you for passing this lesson on to so many people!

It is an honor to have such a wonderful grandmother to share her recipes with us all thank you so much, it has been a joy

I love Grandma Gloria's recipes. You can feel the love that's put into her cooking. I read much further down that you should bake these at 375 degrees and check after 50 minutes for a glaze on top. When you see that, they're done! I hope this is correct. Hadn't tried it yet but will be doing so VERY SOON!!!

Grandma Gloria is just the sweetest thing! I can't wait to try her recipe! Thank the elders for guiding us through these lessons!

I made these pies again this year and MA’AM….!!! I must say they hit EVERY YEAR. Thank you! A blessing you are❤❤

I made this pie today. Oh how delicious! Everyone loved it. It turned out so well. Of course, I put my own touch to it, I added a 1/2 cup of buttermilk and a bit of flour. Thank you so much for this recipe.

When she said use a strip and a half of butter, I knew she was a real one. They don't use culinary lingo!

I love how she brings the blender out too lmao this little lady is perfect

Grandma Gloria recipes are the best. My goodness how good they are. Thank you Grandma for sharing.

Wonderful, thank you, Grandma Gloria. Bless you and your family.

I LOVE Grandma Gloria.. Her grandchildren are so blessed to still have such a vibrant wonderful grandma to teach them how to make all her treasures.. God bless you Grandma.. May you have many many MANY more years baking your treasures!

What I appreciate about this tutorial is an explanation is given about the technique. Also Grandma Gloria what the consistency of the pie should be!!! She knows what she is talking about.

Grandma Gloria, you’re amazing! I felt like I was in the kitchen with you. I’ve never made sweet potato pie before in my life. My grandparents baked cakes in that pies. You have introduced me to the world of pie baking. I am so excited. My batter was amazing. I cannot wait to see how this pie turns out for Thanksgiving , thank you so much for your time and your effort and your energy. This is a wonderful platform for you as you see everyone who loves you. Thanks for sharing a little bit of you with us.❤ Blessings, Kendra

this is SUCH a great idea. Watching these videos made me think of my grandmother. She had the best pies, meatloaf, spinach....she had the best everything! I wish we had thought to record her cooking. God bless her.

Lemon extra and vanilla extra I love it 🥰 I miss my grandparents so much granny teaching teaching better pay attention
