My sweet potato cobbler with pie crust and dumplings recipe is easy and delicious! This old-fashioned recipe calls for boiling sweet potatoes with water, sugar, lemon, and spices to make a sugary syrup that takes the places of juice in other types of cobblers such as peach and blackberry. Once the sweet potato chunks are cooked, I added small, pie crust dumplings to the filling and then poured it into the bottom crust. Although you could definitely use a solid top, I opted for a pie crust lattice. After adding the final sprinkling of extra sugar, I put it into the oven to bake. Even though sweet potato cobbler is a bit unique, it was super flavorful, the lemon really helping to bring out the sweet potato flavor. I also really liked the contrast in textures between the soft and pillowy dumplings and the crispy, crunchy pie crust on top: it gave this dessert and old-fashioned feel. If you're looking for a southern-style dessert that's a bit different from the norm, this would be great any time in the fall, especially Thanksgiving or even Christmas.
