Ingredients
For the pie, you will need the following ingredients:
- 2 cups mashed sweet potatoes (about 2 medium sweet potatoes)
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup milk or evaporated milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 pre-made pie crust
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your Sweet Potato Pie:
- Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then cut them into chunks and boil them in a pot of water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let them cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, mash the sweet potatoes until smooth. You can also use a food processor for an even creamier texture.
- Add the brown sugar, granulated sugar, milk, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt to the sweet potatoes. Mix until well combined and smooth.
- Pour the sweet potato mixture into the pre-made pie crust, spreading it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is lightly golden.
- Allow the pie to cool at room temperature before slicing. It can be served warm or chilled, and it pairs wonderfully with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
