Sweet Potato Casserole Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment; set aside.
• Using the tines of a fork, carefully poke holes into the surface of each sweet potato. Place the sweet potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and bake until fork-tender and the skins are crisp, 45 to 50 minutes. Lower the oven to 350 degrees, remove the sweet potatoes and let sit until cool enough to handle, 15 to 20 minutes. Peel them, discarding the skins, and transfer peeled sweet potatoes into a large bowl; mash until creamy (you should have about 2 generous cups). Place the bowl into the refrigerator to chill while you make the crust.
• Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with a piece of parchment. In a food processor, combine the pecans, 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt; blend on high until the mixture looks like coarse bread crumbs, about 20 seconds. Sprinkle the mixture into the bottom of the pan and press down firmly to compact the crust. (If using a pie plate, press up the sides as well.) Bake until deep golden brown and fragrant, 18 to 20 minutes. Let the crust cool while you make the filling.
• Lower the oven to 325 degrees. Into a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add the chilled potatoes and beat on medium for 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl and beater as you go. Add the remaining 1/2 cup light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt, along with the cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. Beat on medium speed to combine for 2 to 3 minutes, again stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl and beater as you go. Reduce the speed to low and add the evaporated milk and vanilla, beating until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until fully incorporated, then turn the speed to medium-high and beat for another 45 seconds before pouring the mixture into the cooled crust. Set the pie on top of a baking sheet, then bake until set around the edges but just slightly jiggly in the center, 60 to 70 minutes.
• Allow the pie to cool for 10 to 15 minutes, then carefully arrange the marshmallows on top in an even layer. (If you set the marshmallows on the hot pie as soon as it comes out of the oven, they'll melt into a flat layer. Allowing the pie to cool a bit first helps them retain their shape.) Once the pie cools to room temperature, cover it with foil and transfer it to the fridge to chill, at least 4 hours or up to 2 days.
• When ready to serve, heat the broiler and position an oven rack close to the broiler. Place the pie under the broiler until marshmallows are browned in spots, 1 to 3 minutes, depending on how charred you prefer your marshmallows, watching closely. Remove from the oven and let the pie rest for 10 minutes to allow the marshmallows to set and harden before running a knife around the edges of the pan and releasing the ring. Slice and serve immediately.

Steps:

• For the sweet potatoes: Add 1 3/4 pounds peeled and cubed sweet potatoes to a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are very tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and cool. Mash the sweet potatoes.
• For the filling: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 2-quart baking dish.
• Whisk together the butter, mashed sweet potatoes, milk, brown sugar, vanilla, salt and eggs in a large bowl. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
• For the topping: Combine the flour, brown sugar, butter and salt in a medium bowl until moist and the mixture clumps together. Stir in the pecans. Spread the mixture over the top of the sweet potatoes in an even layer. Bake until mostly set in the center and golden on top, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Fill a large pan with boiling water from the kettle and set over a medium-high heat. Carefully drop in the whole, unpeeled sweet potatoes and cook for 30 minutes until very tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife. Drain well and leave to cool for 10 mins, then peel.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tip the peeled sweet potatoes into a large bowl, add the butter and mash with a potato masher until completely smooth. Tip in the brown sugar, milk, eggs, spices and vanilla and whisk until everything is combined and smooth.
• Lightly butter a 20 x 30cm baking dish, then scrape in the sweet potato mixture. To make the topping, rub the butter into the flour, then stir in the brown sugar, pecans and a good pinch of salt. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the sweet potato filling, then bake for 45-50 mins until golden on top.

Steps:

• Prepare the filling: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Poke the sweet potatoes all over with a fork and place on the baking sheet. Bake until soft, about 1 hour; let cool.
• When sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them using a knife, then add the flesh to a large bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment) and mash with a potato masher or fork.
• Add the 1/2 cup butter, eggs, condensed milk, granulated sugar, vanilla and salt to the bowl. Combine well with a hand mixer or a stand mixer on medium speed. Add the mixture to the prepared baking dish and, using a spatula, smooth out the top.
• Prepare the topping: In a medium bowl, stir together the pecans, cornflakes (if using), brown sugar, flour and butter until thoroughly combined. Spoon the topping evenly over the sweet potatoes.
• Bake the casserole until slightly browned, about 35 minutes. Remove the casserole from the oven and add the marshmallows in an even layer. Return to the oven and bake until marshmallows are toasty and melted, about 5 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350° F. Butter a 2-quart casserole and set aside.
• 2. Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl, beating until smooth. Taste for salt and pepper and adjust as needed.
• 3. Scoop into the casserole, spreading to the edge and roughing the surface. Bake uncovered on the middle oven shelf for about 45 minutes or until tipped with brown.
• 4. Serve hot as an accompaniment to roast turkey, chicken, or pork. Good, too, with pork chops.
