Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 medium or 3 small sweet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds)
3/4 cup heavy cream
6 tablespoons maple syrup
5 tablespoons brown sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup bourbon
3 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground clove
A few grinds of black pepper
1 baked 9-inch pie crust

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. With a fork, pierce sweet potatoes, and place on foil-lined baking sheet. Roast until soft, about 1 hour, turning once. Cool, peel, and put flesh through a food mill, or mash smoothly with a potato masher to make 2 cups of puree.
  • Reduce heat to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk puree and remaining ingredients to combine. Pour into prepared crust.
  • Place pie plate onto a cookie sheet, and bake until filling is just about set, or when a knife inserted one inch from the edge comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool pie on wire rack to room temperature.

This pie is a great make-ahead dessert. I made it the day before Thanksgiving and it was still delicious the next day.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my pie didn't come out looking as pretty as the pictures. It still tasted good though!

This pie is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

I'm not a big fan of bourbon, but I really enjoyed this pie. The maple flavor really mellowed out the bourbon.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pie turned out really dry. I think I might have overbaked it.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie didn't turn out as good as the pictures. The filling was too runny and the crust was too tough.

I'm not usually a fan of sweet potato pie, but this one changed my mind. The maple and bourbon flavors are amazing, and the crust is so flaky.

I've made this pie twice now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The filling is creamy and flavorful, and the crust is just the right amount of flaky.
