Sweet Potato Pie W/Maple Syrup image

Trying to accommodate my growing allergy to all things squash, I started with the traditional Libby's Famous Pumpkin Pie recipe and happily landed here! (Prep time doesn't include cooking sweet potatoes.)

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
2 large eggs
1 3/4 cups cooked sweet potatoes, mashed and drained well (I had 1 lb.)
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1 cup 1% low-fat milk
9 inches unbaked pie shells

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425* F.
  • Combine dry ingredients.
  • Beat eggs and add sweet potatoes and sugar-spice mixture.
  • Carefully stir in maple syrup and milk.
  • Pour into shell.
  • Bake on center rack for 15 minutes.
  • Lower temp to 350, rotate the pie 180 degrees, and bake until knife inserted in center comes out clean, 40-45 minutes.
  • Let cool, at least slightly!
  • ***Do be sure to drain the cooked sweet potatoes well or your pie will be a bit oozy -- not that it will change the flavor!***.
