Description
Smooth, spiced, and Southern to the core—sweet potato pie is a holiday classic that brings warmth and comfort with every slice. With its silky filling, buttery crust, and hint of cinnamon, it’s the kind of dessert that never lasts long.
Ingredients
1 unbaked 9-inch pie crust
2 cups mashed sweet potatoes (about 2–3 medium)
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup evaporated milk
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, beat together mashed sweet potatoes and softened butter until smooth.
Add sugar, milk, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until fully combined.
Pour filling into the unbaked pie crust and smooth the top.
Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
Cool at room temperature, then chill for at least 2 hours before slicing.
