I question this too. Where do you find mashed sweet potatoes in a can?? I know you can buy canned yams/sweet potatoes but they are not mashed.

Me again! I forgot to mention that I reduce the flour to half when I reduce the milk to half.

I make something very similar but with no egg and half cup milk and have used regular when out of evaporated. However, my best 'secret' ingredient is adding either brandy or whiskey! I also put the pecans on the top before baking.
