Ingredients

2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
1 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crust
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup buttermilk
¼ teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

Place sweet potatoes into a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain well and let cool.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line the bottom of a pie plate with pie crust.
Mash sweet potatoes with a potato masher or fork. Measure 2 cups of the mash into a large bowl. Mix in sugar eggs, butter, and vanilla extract.
Mix flour, pumpkin pie spice, and salt together in a separate bowl. Add to the sweet potato mixture.
Combine buttermilk and baking soda in a small bowl. Add to the sweet potato-flour mixture. Stir batter well; pour into the prepared crust.
Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Let cool on rack until firm, at least 20 minutes.
