Ingredients
- 1 pound sweet potato see notes
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup evaporated milk
- 2 large egg
- 1 teaspoon flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pie crust
Instructions
- Add sweet potatoes to a large pot and cover with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 45 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through and soft.
- Run the potatoes under cold water remove the skin from the potatoes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and arrange a pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate.
- Add the hot potatoes and butter to a mixing bowl and beat with a mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Beat in the sugars, evaporated milk, eggs, flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, and vanilla on medium speed until mixture is smooth.
- Pour filling into the prepared pie crust.
- Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Pie will puff up like a soufflé and then will sink back down as it cools.
- Cool on the counter for one hour and then transfer to the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving. Serve with whipped cream, if desired.
Notes
- Fresh or Canned Sweet Potatoes: This recipe does taste best with fresh sweet potatoes, but when you're in a rush, canned work just as well. Drain the liquid from the can and place the potatoes in a mixing bowl. Microwave for 2-3 minutes or until the potatoes are warm enough to easily mash. Proceed with step 3.
- Spices: Feel free to increase the amount of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger based on your tastes. As is, this is a mildly spiced pie. You may also sub these three spices for 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice.
- Pie Crust: You may use homemade or store bought pie crust for this recipe.
