Sweet Potato Pie Recipe
Ingredients
- – 2 cups cooked and mashed sweet potatoes (about 3)
– 1 1/2 cups sugar
– 2 tablespoons flour
– 1 can (5 oz) evaporated milk, divided
– 1 egg, slightly beaten
– 1 teaspoon vanilla
– 1 unbaked 9″ pie crust
– Glaze
– 1/2 cup sugar
– 2 1/4 teaspoons flour
– 2 tablespoons melted butter
– 2 tablespoons evaporated milk (from the above can)
– 1/4 cup optional pecan halves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place the unbaked pie crust on a cookie sheet.
- In a bowl, mix sugar, flour, most of the evaporated milk (reserving 2 tablespoons for the glaze), egg, and vanilla.
- Stir in the mashed sweet potatoes and pour the mixture into the pie shell.
- For the glaze, combine sugar, flour, melted butter, and the reserved 2 tablespoons of evaporated milk. Drizzle over the sweet potato mixture, avoiding excess.
