📝 Preparation Steps
1
Prepare the pie crust. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 13-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie pan, trim to a 1-inch overhang, fold under, and flute the edges. Refrigerate.
2
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add sweet potatoes and cook until tender, about ⏱️ 30 minutes. Drain, cool slightly, then peel. Mash until smooth in a large bowl. You should have 3 cups.
3
Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush the inside of the chilled pie shell with some of the melted butter and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of the brown sugar. Bake for ⏱️ 15 minutes until set.
4
In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to combine the 3 cups of mashed sweet potatoes, remaining melted butter, remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, half-and-half, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
