Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Premade pie crust
- 2 cups Cooked and mashed sweet potatoes
- 1 cup Full-fat evaporated milk
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Light brown sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- to taste Whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the premade pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges if desired. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, evaporated milk, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Whisk until smooth.
Add the eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the sweet potato mixture. Whisk together until fully incorporated.
Sprinkle in the cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Stir until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Pour the sweet potato filling into the prepared pie crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.
Place the pie on the center rack of the preheated oven. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted into the center of the pie comes out clean.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. This will allow the filling to fully set.
Once cooled, slice the pie and serve with whipped cream, if desired. Enjoy your Yummy Mock Pumpkin Pie!
