How-To

To make ahead of time, cover and refrigerate mashed sweet potatoes up to 24 hours, then reheat in the microwave oven or a slow cooker on Low heat setting until warm.

Easy Roasted Sweet Potato Pie perfect for Thanksgiving! A classic dessert bursting with flavor. Made by using a pre-made crust. A cozy dessert you’ll love.

For a special dollop on top of each slice of sweet potato pie, make <a href="https://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/homemade-whipped-cream/6f80a75b-7a7d-43d6-a6ef-eae48ddb0f30">homemade whipped cream</a> and fold in flaked coconut.

Flavor Tip

For best results use a heat-resistant glass pie plate or dull aluminum pie pan. Shiny or disposable pie pans reflect heat and prevent crusts from browning, dark pans absorb heat, causing over-browning and nonstick pans can cause crusts to shrink.

To soften chilled butter, cut into small pieces and leave at room temperature. A faster method is to microwave it at 5-second intervals checking frequently to ensure the butter is softened but not melted.

Each ingredient plays a crucial role in creating the overall flavor, texture, and structure of the Roasted Sweet Potato Pie.Dark-Orange Sweet Potatoes: The star of the show! Sweet potatoes provide the base flavor, sweetness, and creamy texture of the pie filling. The dark-orange variety is preferred for its richer flavor and vibrant color. Roasting them intensifies their sweetness and brings out their natural flavors.Refrigerated Pie Crust: Provides the structural foundation for the pie. While homemade crust can be delicious, a store-bought crust is huge time-saver for this recipe.Brown Sugar:&nbsp;Provides sweetness and a molasses-like flavor that complements the sweet potatoes and spices. Brown sugar also helps to create a slightly chewy texture in the filling. The "packed" instruction ensures consistent measurement.Granulated Sugar: It works in conjunction with the brown sugar to achieve the desired level of sweetness.Whipping Cream: Adds richness, moisture, and a velvety texture to the filling. &nbsp;Bourbon or Vanilla: Enhances the flavor profile of the pie. &nbsp;Ground Cinnamon &amp; Ground Nutmeg: Both spices&nbsp;provide warmth, depth, and complexity to the flavor profile of the pie. &nbsp;Eggs: Act as a binder and provide structure to the filling. Eggs help to thicken the filling and create a custard-like texture. &nbsp;Other Ingredients You’ll Need: Butter, salt.

The Instant Pot™ is your secret weapon for easily peeling just about anything, including foods that are otherwise fussy. Hard-boiled eggs, beets, butternut squash, and now, sweet potatoes are coaxed from their peels and cooked until tender under pressure. Give it a try in our Instant Pot™ Sweet Potato Casserole.

Sweet potatoes are available in varieties ranging from pale skin with light yellow flesh to dark orange or red skin and flesh. They're often mistakenly called yams, but true yams are not sweet potatoes. 

Cutting the sweet potatoes in half helps fit even the most strangely-shaped taters nicely in the Instant Pot™. Plus, the peels will slide right off after steaming.

Substitution

Serve this rich dessert on plates dusted with cinnamon.
