Mama's Famous Sweet Potato Pie
Ready In: 1 hr 20 mins
Serves: 16
Yields: 2 pies
Ingredients
- 2 cups mashed sweet potatoes
- 1 cup melted butter
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 (12 ounce) cans evaporated milk
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 egg yolks
Directions
- Puree all ingredients in a blender.
- I have to do this in 2 batches to fit all the ingredients.
- Pour each batch into a large container with a pouring spout (I use a plastic juice pitcher).
- Pour filling into a uncooked pie crust.(This recipe will make 2 deep dish pies).
- Bake in a 350 degree oven that has been preheated for approximately 1 hour.
- I cover the edges of the crust with foil to prevent over browning. I remove it after 30 minutes and rotate the pies so they cook evenly.
- Allow to cool completely before slicing. Enjoy!
