FLUFFY SWEET POTATO CUSTARD PIE



Fluffy Sweet Potato Custard Pie image

My grandmother made this dessert for us every Thanksgiving and Christmas. She passed the recipe to me and I started bringing the pies to parties at work. Feel free to add sweetened whipped cream and sprinkle on additional nutmeg for extra appeal. The secret to a perfect pie is to take no shortcuts. Soften, don't melt the butter and blend, blend, blend! -Valerie Lockett, Tumwater, Washington

SWEET-POTATO CUSTARD PIE



Sweet-Potato Custard Pie image

Whether they're paired in a casserole or a pie, sweet potatoes and marshmallows are a classic Thanksgiving combination. Here, roasted sweet potatoes are enriched with eggs, half-and-half, and warming spices for the custard filling, and the baked pie is crowned with rings of toasted marshmallows.

Time 10h

Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

Unbleached all-purpose flour, for dusting
1/2 recipe Test Kitchen's Favorite Pate Brisee
2 to 3 medium sweet potatoes (1 3/4 pounds), scrubbed and pricked all over with a fork
3 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/4 cups half-and-half
Vegetable-oil cooking spray
20 large marshmallows

Steps:

  • On a lightly floured piece of parchment, roll out dough into a 13-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Using kitchen shears, trim to a 1-inch overhang; fold under. Crimp edges or decorate as desired. Lightly prick bottom of dough with a fork. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees with a rack in lower third. Line dough with parchment; fill with dried beans or rice. Bake until edges begin to turn golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove beans or rice and parchment; bake until bottom and sides are golden brown, about 20 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely. (Crust can be made up to a day in advance and covered tightly in foil.)
  • Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees. Arrange sweet potatoes on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 1 hour. Remove and let cool slightly; reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees and place a foil-lined baking sheet below rack. When cool enough to handle, peel sweet potatoes, discarding skins. Place flesh in a food processor and process until smooth. (Puree can be made ahead and refrigerated in an airtight container up to 5 days.)
  • In a bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined. Whisk in half-and-half. Add 1 1/4 cups sweet-potato puree; whisk until thoroughly combined. Pour mixture into crust (do not overfill). Cover edges with a foil ring, avoiding custard. Place pie dish directly on rack and bake until filling is just set in center, 50 to 55 minutes. Transfer to wire rack; let cool completely, at least 2 hours. Refrigerate, uncovered, until chilled, at least 4 hours or, loosely covered, up to 2 days.
  • When ready to serve, spray kitchen shears or a knife with oil; cut marshmallows in half crosswise. Shingle on top of pie in concentric circles, cut-sides down. Move a small kitchen blowtorch back and forth across marshmallows until caramelized, or place pie under the broiler until toasted, 10 to 15 seconds.

SWEET-POTATO-CUSTARD PIE IN ORANGE CRUST



Sweet-Potato-Custard Pie in Orange Crust image

This recipe came to The Times in 1995 in a column about the novelist and farmer Dori Sanders, who cooked it for Thanksgiving on her farm in Flibert, S.C.. It is, some say, quite the best thing to do with a sweet potato. "People tell their life stories through food," Ms. Sanders said. "They talk about how they did it then, how they do it now. The way they talk tells you who they are."

Time 2h

Yield One 10-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus flour for sprinkling the surface
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/2 cup chilled vegetable shortening, cut into small pieces
1/2 teaspoon grated orange rind
3 to 4 tablespoons chilled orange juice
1 teaspoon sugar
Pinch of ground nutmeg
3 eggs, beaten
1 cup sugar
2 cups cooked, mashed and sieved sweet potatoes (about 2 large or 3 small sweet potatoes)
1/3 cup whole milk
1/3 cup light cream
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon lemon extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Large pinch of ground nutmeg (optional)

Steps:

  • To make the crust, sift the flour and salt together in a large bowl. Cut in the butter, shortening and orange rind with a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture is crumbly.
  • In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of orange juice with the sugar and nutmeg. Using a fork, stir the orange-juice mixture into the flour mixture to form a soft dough, adding additional orange juice if necessary. Do not overmix. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  • On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to fit a 10-inch pie plate. Press the crust firmly into the plate and trim and crimp, or flute, the edges. Set aside.
  • For the filling, beat the eggs, sugar and sweet potatoes together in a medium bowl. Add the milk and light cream and stir until combined. Add the melted butter, orange juice, vanilla extract, lemon extract, salt and nutmeg, if using, and mix well.
  • Pour the mixture into the pie shell and bake until a knife inserted into the middle of the custard comes out clean, about 40 to 45 minutes.

SUGAR FREE SWEET POTATO CUSTARD/PIE FILLING II



Sugar Free Sweet Potato Custard/Pie Filling II image

In my Sugar free pumpkin custard, I used Equal sugar substitute but I find that Splenda works better. This recipe was modified from Splenda's website, www.splenda.com of pumpkin pie. I used sweet potatoes and omitted the vanilla extract. Easy dessert for two. I used a creme brulee dish to bake this delicious, guilt free dessert. Substitute with pumpkin if desired
