Sweet Potato Pie


You'll need:
  • 2 deep dish pie crust
  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 1 1/2 stick unsalted butter
  • 3/4 c eggnog
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 c brown sugar
  • 1/2 c sugar
  • 3 Tbs flour
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 3/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp cloves
  • 1/2 tsp ginger
  • 1/4 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 350.

I use store bought pie crust, so remove it from the freezer to thaw a bit while you cook.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the butter in 1 to 2 Tbs chunks and let sit while the potatoes cook.

Peel sweet potatoes and cut into 1-inch pieces. Add them a medium saucepan and fill with enough water to cover the potatoes. Bring to a boil, and simmer until easily poked with a fork - about 20 minutes. Drain all the water, and add the potatoes to the mixing bowl with the butter.

Beat the potatoes with the butter on medium until totally smooth. Add all the remaining ingredients and beat on high until fully combined, scraping the sides a couple of times.

Pour evenly into both pie crusts and bake 50-60 minutes, until mostly set and barely jiggly when you move the pan. Let cool at room temperature, then chill until ready to serve.

Top with whipped cream.
