Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized sweet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup evaporated milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 9-inch prepared pie crust
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into large chunks. Place them in a large pot of boiling water and cook for 15-20 minutes until fork-tender.
Drain the sweet potatoes and transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Mash them until smooth using a potato masher or a hand mixer.
Stir in the unsalted butter while the sweet potatoes are still hot, allowing it to melt completely.
Add brown sugar, granulated sugar, evaporated milk, eggs, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt to the mashed sweet potatoes. Mix thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
Pour the sweet potato filling into the prepared 9-inch pie crust, spreading it evenly.
Place the pie on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool to room temperature before slicing and serving. Optionally, serve with whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon for garnish.
