A classic sweet potato pie with a creamy, spiced filling and a flaky crust. This recipe is perfect for holidays or any time you crave a comforting dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
  • 3 medium sweet potatoes (about 1.5 pounds)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (alcohol-free)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Wash and peel sweet potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch pieces.
  3. Boil sweet potatoes in a large pot of water until very tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well.
  4. Mash the cooked sweet potatoes in a large bowl until smooth.
  5. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt to the mashed sweet potatoes. Stir to combine.
  6. Stir in evaporated milk, melted butter, beaten eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  7. Pour the sweet potato mixture into the unbaked pie crust.
  8. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the center is set and the crust is golden brown. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
  9. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of allspice.
  • Serve with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • If the crust starts to brown too quickly, you can cover the edges with aluminum foil.
