There are a lot of different ways to make a dish, here is my version of how to make sweet potato pie that melts in the mouth. It's relatively easy and will keep everyone coming back for more.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Fresh Yams
  • Nutmeg
  • Sugar
  • Small can of carnation milk
  • Margarine (preferrably I can't beleive its butter- stick)
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Pie Crust

Sweet Potato Pie

Step1
Peel the yams before boiling them (use a peeler instead of a knife).
Once yams are boiled (boil until they are mashable-very soft) drain, then put them into a bowl.
Step2
Depending on how many yams you used (which depends on how many pies you're going to make) add the margarine (stick butter) and your vanilla extract. You don't want to use to much vanilla extract because you don't want the flavoring to over power the taste of the yams.
Step3
Add milk (depending on how much sweet potato mix you have) sugar to sweeten it up and nutmeg. Everything that's added should be tasted but not overpoweringly so.
Step4
Make sure you mix well so that there are no lumps in the mixture. Once everything is mixed, put into pie crusts and bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips & Warnings

  • Remember, you don't want to add too much of anything because you want your mix to have a blended taste.
  • After you add each ingredient, taste to make sure that the flavor that was added isn't over powering.
  • don't add too much milk because your pie filling will be to soft.
  • don't over add the sugar because you want your pie to be sweet but not overly so.
  • don't overly put in to much vanilla extract because you want the flavor of everything to blend.
