Ingredients

Pie Crust:

  • 1 deep dish pie crust

Pie Filling:

  • 2 lbs. sweet potatoes*
  • 6 Tbsp salted butter, melted & cooled
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/3 cup evaporated milk
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Wash and dry the sweet potatoes, then prick them several times with a fork. Place the sweet potatoes on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 50-60 minutes or until tender. Set the baked sweet potatoes aside to cool.
  2. Blind-bake the pie crust: Lower oven temperature to 350°F. Prick the bottom and sides of the crust with a fork. Bake the crust with pie weights for 15 minutes, then remove the weights and parchment and bake for another 10 minutes. Let the crust cool.
  3. Make the pie filling: Scoop 2 cups of sweet potato flesh into a bowl. Mash or blend until smooth. Add butter, sugars, vanilla, spices, and salt. Blend in eggs and milk until smooth.
  4. Pour filling into crust: Pour the sweet potato mixture into the crust. Bake at 350°F for 50-55 minutes until mostly set. Cool for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

  • You can sprinkle some chopped pecans on top before baking for added crunch.
  • This pie pairs wonderfully with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
