Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
3 large sweet potatoes
½ cup butter, softened
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups sugar, or more to taste
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 eggs, beaten
¾ cup evaporated milk
2 (9 inch) unbaked pie shells
Directions
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add sweet potatoes and cook until tender but still firm, about 30 minutes. Drain and cool; peel and mash.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Combine sweet potatoes, butter, sugar, vanilla, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Whisk eggs and milk together in a small bowl; blend into sweet potato mixture. Pour filling into pie shells.
Bake pies in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
