- 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 1 pastry for a 9-inch deep-dish pie crust
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- Place sweet potatoes into a large pot and cover with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain well and let cool.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a 9-inch pie plate with pastry.
- Mash sweet potatoes with a potato masher or fork. Measure 1 3/4 cup of the mash into a large bowl. Add milk, sugar, eggs, butter, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Beat with a rotary beater until mixture has the consistency of cake batter. Pour into the pastry-lined plate.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes. Cool until center is set, about 15 minutes.
