East Texas Pecan Sweet Potato Pie
- 1 preheat oven to 350 degrees
- 1 frozen 9" deep dish prepared pie shell
- 2 cup mashed sweet potato @ room temperature (about 2-3 medium size )
- 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup roughly chopped toasted pecan pieces
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
- 2 tbsp all purpose flour
- 3/4 cup half n half cream
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp table salt
- Toast pecan pieces in a pan over medium heat, until you can smell them.
- Roughly 3-5 minutes.
- Set aside.
- Cream mashed sweet potato, melted butter and eggs together until very smooth.
- I use a stand mixer.
- Add all remaining ingredients including toasted chopped pecans and blend together until mixture is very smooth.
- Pour into frozen pie shell and bake at 350" for approximately 50-60 minutes until pie custard is set.
- Pie will be done when a wooden toothpick comes out clean when inserted.
- You can boil your sweet potatoes or even use canned.
- I prefer fresh baked sweet potatoes.
- I like to serve this pie well chilled and keep it stored in the refrigerator.
- Garnish with whipped cream and toasted pecan pieces.
- Enjoy!
