Ingredients

• 2 large Sweet potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3/4 cup Brown sugar
• 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 1/2 cup Heavy cream
• 3 tablespoons Bourbon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt
• 1 Premade pie crust or homemade crust
• 0 Whipped cream (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Pierce the sweet potatoes several times with a fork, place them on a baking sheet, and roast in the oven for 45-50 minutes or until they are completely tender.

Step 3

Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven, let them cool slightly, then peel and discard the skins. Mash the sweet potato flesh in a large bowl until smooth.

Step 4

Add the unsalted butter to the warm sweet potatoes and stir until melted and combined.

Step 5

Mix in the brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and heavy cream, stirring until smooth.

Step 6

Add the bourbon, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt, and mix thoroughly to create a spiced pie filling.

Step 7

Roll out your premade or homemade pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess crust and crimp the edges as desired.

Step 8

Pour the sweet potato filling into the pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is set and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. If the edges of the crust begin to brown too quickly, cover them with foil or a pie shield.

Step 10

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for at least 2 hours before slicing.

Step 11

Serve with whipped cream, if desired, and enjoy the rich, spiced flavor with a touch of bourbon warmth.
