The Farmhouse Kitchen: Gathering Together
November 2024
Makes 2(two) 9-inch pies
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked, peeled, and mashed sweet potatoes
- 1 stick butter, melted
- 2 cups sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 12-ounce can evaporated milk
- 2 unbaked 9” pie crusts (frozen, refrigerated, or homemade)
Directions
Bake or boil potatoes, and mash well. Blend in all ingredients. Pour into 2 unbaked pie shells. Bake 325 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes, or until just set in center. Don’t over-bake. (You should be able to stick a knife in between the outside edge and center of the pie and come out clean. Over-baking will make the custard tough.)
