How to Make Mashed Sweet Potato Pie
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prick 2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds total) several times with a fork. Bake until tender, about 45-60 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork.
- While sweet potatoes are baking, prepare the pie crust (you can use a store-bought crust for convenience).
- Once the sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel and mash them thoroughly using a potato masher or electric mixer. Make sure all lumps are removed, straining if necessary for extra smoothness.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potatoes, 2 large eggs, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 cup heavy cream (or evaporated milk), and ¼ cup melted unsalted butter. Mix well until completely combined.
- Pour the sweet potato mixture into the unbaked pie shell.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a knife inserted one inch from the edge comes out clean. The center may still jiggle slightly.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
