Thank you Martha for sharing this amazing recipes, thank you for explaining all the details; most bakers don’t bother to do that, that’s why you will always be NUMBER ONE!!!

My oldest son does not like sweet potato pie, but he loves pumpkin pie. One year I made two pies, one pumpkin and one sweet potato. All of the pumpkin pie had been eaten but two pieces of sweet potato were left. He thought it was pumpkin and ate one. He said that was the best pumpkin pie I had made. I then informed him that all of the pumpkin pie had been already and it was a sweet potato pie he had eaten.

I've never had any of those desserts, not even chocolate whipped cream. I gotta start to try making these instead of the old stand bys I always make. They look delicious!!! Love you, Martha💜😍

Lovely and decadent recipes! Thank you for sharing these with us Martha!

I love both kinds of pies, pumpkin, and sweet potato. The pineapple skins are great for flavored waters!

[LotusLady]

Another batch of great recipes; thanks!🌞

My grandma used to make a cake called a Pig Pickin' Cake.. I have found many recipes, but none taste as good as hers... Miss Martha, do you have a good recipe for that one? 😊

Suggestion: weigh your mixing bowl before adding ingredients. When you go to split the batter between the pans, you can subtract the weight of the bowl and divide by 3 to get the exact amount each pan needs.

We call it Dr. Bird Cake here in Indiana....bake in a angel food cake pan and serve with whipped cream

I made a hummingbird cake once. It was delicious but weighed so much I was afraid to go over 3 ton weight limit bridges when I delivered it to my MIL. . 😆

[hayleybourgault]

I'm curious as to how come the hummingbird cake came out dark??💜

Estos videos los vi en Español como le puedo hacer para verlos saludos de la Ciudad de Mexico

Beautiful 👀 looking cakes with the baked dried fruit or without the baked dried fruit that I'd also eat without topping on other kinds.↗😘 Awesome.

[anniegao]

Love these treats so delicious. It's kind of weird why some of the videos have been made private, some are deleted, while the most are still there

[ceceliasmith]

Same here as another commenter said, what made the cake come out so dark. However, I am wondering at what oven temperature were the fruit dried? (The cake looks very delicious, just curious about the color.)

You don't have to put lemon zest or juice in every time you make a dessert.!
I don't know anyone who put lemon zest or juice in a sweet potato pie what is that, ? Lol.!

[hi.itsalveena_xx]

Hi Martha! Will I be able to make a normal cake using the hummingbird recipe if I leave out the pineapple purée, bananas and the nuts? Or will it be too dry?

[trumpyj]

These videos absolutely make me laugh. So unbelievably phony
