1 sheet refrigerated pie crust
1 2/3 cups sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Pinch salt
1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
2 large eggs
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup light corn syrup
3/4 cup evaporated milk
whipped cream, optional
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Unroll your premade pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan. Flute the edges, and place the crust back in the fridge until you're ready to fill it. Editor’s Tip: Fluted edges are just one of several easy decorative pie crusts you can learn to make.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, nutmeg and salt. In a large bowl, beat the sweet potatoes, eggs, butter and corn syrup. Whisk in the flour mixture, then gradually stir in the milk. Scrape down the bottom and sides of the bowl, and stir again. Pour the batter into the prepared pie crust.
Bake until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Cool the pie on a wire rack until room temperature. Place the pie in the refrigerator, and let it chill for at least three hours.
