📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Wash and dry the sweet potatoes, then prick them several times with a fork. Place the sweet potatoes on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for ⏱️ 50-60 minutes or until tender and you can easily slide a knife or fork in the center. Set the baked sweet potatoes aside to cool.
2
Lower oven temperature to 350°F. Next blind-bake the pie crust. Prick the bottom and sides of the crust a few times with a fork. Add a square piece of parchment paper inside the center of the crust and place pie weights (or dry beans) on top.
3
Bake the crust in the oven for ⏱️ 15 minutes. After ⏱️ 15 minutes, remove the pie weights and parchment and return the crust to the oven to bake for another ⏱️ 10 minutes. Remove crust from the oven and let cool.
4
Now make the pie filling. Scoop about 2 cups of the sweet potato flesh from the baked sweet potatoes and add to a large bowl. Using a potato masher or hand mixer, mash or blend the sweet potato flesh until smooth.
5
Add the melted butter, brown sugar, white sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt to the bowl. Blend the ingredients together with a hand mixer until smooth.

7
Pour the sweet potato pie filling into the crust. Add a foil ring around the edges to prevent the crust from over-browning. Bake the pie in the preheated 350°F oven for ⏱️ 50-55 minutes or until the pie is mostly set and the center is no longer liquid. It’s ok if the center has a slight jiggle when you shake the pan.
8
Remove the pie from the oven. It will be slightly domed and puffed around the edges. Let the pie cool at room temperature for at least ⏱️ 1 hour. Serve at room temperature or cover and refrigerate to serve later.
