Number Of Ingredients 9

2 or 3 large sweet potatoes (about 2 1/2 pounds total)
1 stick butter
3 eggs, beaten

1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon extract
2 pie crusts

Place potatoes into boiling water; return to a boil and cook until fork tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Using a potato masher or electric hand mixer, cream butter into sweet potatoes. Add eggs and milk. Combine sugar with cornstarch; add to potato mixture along with vanilla and lemon flavoring. Pour into pie shells. Bake until center is set and top is golden brown, about 45 to 50 minutes. Yield: 2 deep dish pies

I made this pie dairy-free by using a dairy-free butter and milk. It turned out great! The filling was still smooth and creamy, and the crust was still flaky and buttery.

I made this pie vegan by using a flax egg instead of a regular egg and almond milk instead of regular milk. It turned out great! The filling was still smooth and creamy, and the crust was still flaky and buttery.

I love that this recipe uses whole wheat flour and honey instead of white flour and sugar. It makes the pie a bit healthier without sacrificing any of the flavor.
