Description

Sweet Potato Pie with Condensed Milk is a rich, creamy, and spiced dessert featuring a smooth sweet potato filling, a buttery crust, and a delightful mix of nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla. Perfect for holidays or any time you’re craving a comforting treat.


Ingredients

1 (1 pound) sweet potato

2 large eggs

½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 cup white sugar

½ cup condensed milk

½ cup butter, softened

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust


Instructions

  1. Boil the Sweet Potato: Place the whole sweet potato in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook for 40-50 minutes until tender, then cool, peel, and mash.
  2. Prepare the Filling: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Beat the mashed sweet potato with butter until smooth, then add sugar, condensed milk, eggs, nutmeg, cinnamon, and vanilla. Mix until well combined.
  3. Assemble the Pie: Pour the filling into the unbaked pie crust, spreading it evenly. Bake for 50 minutes, or until the filling is set and golden around the edges.
  4. Cool and Serve: Let the pie cool for 30 minutes before slicing. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature with whipped cream if desired.

Notes

Top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.

If you prefer more spice, increase the cinnamon and nutmeg slightly, or add ground ginger for added warmth.

For a different crust, try a graham cracker or gluten-free version.
