How to Make Sweet Potato Buttermilk Pie<\/p>\n
Bake sweet potatoes in a 400 degree oven for 1 hour. Let cool 10 minutes and then peel the skins off.<\/p>\n
Be sure to place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet when you bake them. They can ooze and make a mess on the bottom of the oven. This step can be done up to 48 hours in advance.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Place sweet potatoes in a bowl and mash well with a fork. Measure out 1 1\/4 cups of mashed sweet potatoes. If you want to make sure it is smooth, you can use a hand-held mixer to get the sweet potatoes really smooth and creamy.<\/p>\n
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Unroll pie dough and place in a 9-inch pie plate. Shape to fit and crimp the edges. Prick bottom and sides with a fork.<\/p>\n
Bake for 9 to 11 minutes. Let cool. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees.<\/p>\n
Place the 1 1\/4 cups sweet potato in a medium bowl. Add melted butter, lemon juice, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt and stir until smooth.<\/p>\n
Whisk egg yolks until thick and pale in a large bowl. Add sugar and brown sugar and whisk for 1 minute.<\/p>\n
Add sweet potato mixture to egg yolk mixture and whisk until smooth.<\/p>\n
Whisk in flour 1 teaspoon at a time.<\/p>\n
Whisk in buttermilk.<\/p>\n
Using an electric mixer, beat egg white until soft peaks form. Gently fold egg whites into batter.<\/p>\n
Pour batter into pie crust. Bake at 375 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
