Ingredients
Scale
For the Pie Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup cold water
For the Filling:
- 2 cups cooked and mashed sweet potatoes (about 2 medium sweet potatoes)
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Pie Crust: In a large bowl, mix flour and sugar. Cut in chilled butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add cold water, mixing until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F).
- Roll Out the Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer the dough to the dish, trim the edges, and crimp as desired.
- Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine mashed sweet potatoes, condensed milk, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Assemble and Bake: Pour the sweet potato filling into the prepared pie crust. Bake for 15 minutes at 220°C (425°F), then reduce the temperature to 175°C (350°F) and bake for an additional 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing. Serve with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
Notes
- For a smoother filling, you can blend the sweet potato mixture using a hand blender or food processor.
- If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil to prevent burning.
