Homemade sweet potato pie features a creamy filling made with mashed sweet potatoes, evaporated milk, and warming spices, all nestled in a flaky pie crust. This is the perfect alternative to pumpkin pie during the holidays! <\/em><\/p>\n

Pumpkin pie’s southern cousin, homemade sweet potato pie can be found on most dessert tables in the South during the holiday season. A good sweet potato pie has a smooth and creamy filling that’s flavored with warming spices and rich brown sugar, and this recipe ticks all the boxes. <\/p>\n

Although boiling and mashing the sweet potatoes requires more effort than simply scooping pumpkin puree out of a can, the extra work required to make this recipe is worth it. <\/p>\n

For a truly show-stopping dessert, I like to top my sweet potato pies with either whipped cream, meringue, or marshmallow fluff! <\/p>\n
