Steps

1-1 1/2 hrs

1

Since my sweet potatoes are white I’m adding 2 small carrots just for color. Clean and cut sweet potatoes. Clean and peel top layer on carrots and cut into chunks. Put in a pot, cover with water and boil until soft all the way through. Drain. Set aside. Once cool peel skin off potatoes.
2

To a clean mixing bowl (I’m using a stand mixer)add potatoes and carrots (if using). I use the paddle first to break up the potatoes. Add sugars, coconut milk and…
3

Add all the seasonings and change the mixer accessory to the mixing one.
4

Turn on mixer to a medium speed and mix and pause, scrape the sides and turn back on. Taste and adjust flavors to your liking.
5

Add the eggs one at a time and mix after each addition. Add vanilla and mix. Third video shows the consistency
6

Preheat oven to 320f or 160c. Find your desired pie plate or baking dish and add pie crust of choice. Then pour the sweet potato mixture.
7

Bake for about 1 hour depending on your oven. Insert a knife carefully to the center. If it comes out clean it is finished. If not, put back in for 5 mins and check with knife again. Repeat as necessary. Take out of oven when the knife test is complete. Cool and then refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve with cool whip if so desired but enjoy this southern classic to the fullest!
