Classic Sweet Potato Pie
Ingredients
1 pre-made or homemade pie crust
2 cups mashed sweet potatoes (about 2 large sweet potatoes)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup whole milk (or evaporated milk)
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1 tsp vanilla extract
Whipped cream for topping (optional)
Directions
Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Peel and boil sweet potatoes until fork-tender. Drain and mash until smooth.
Mix the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and mashed sweet potatoes until smooth. Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Fill the Crust: Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the sweet potato filling into the crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Serve: Let the pie cool completely before slicing. Top with whipped cream for extra indulgence!
