We recently held a great holiday baking class at Apron Strings and one of the most delicious items we made was Sweet Potato Pie. Cooking classes at Apron Strings are a fantastic way to spend a weekend morning. Be sure to check our calendar frequently for more offerings!
Here’s a delicious Sweet Potato Pie recipe that you can make at home:
Ingredients
- 1 (1 pound) sweet potato
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
Directions
- Boil sweet potato whole in skin for 40 to 50 minutes, or until done. Run cold water over the sweet potato, and remove the skin.
- Break apart sweet potato in a bowl. Add butter, and mix well with mixer. Stir in sugar, milk, eggs, nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until mixture is smooth. Pour filling into an unbaked pie crust.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 55 to 60 minutes, or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Pie will puff up like a souffle, and then will sink down as it cools.
