After James Wright Chanel’s video review of Patti LaBelle’s Sweet Potato Pie went viral in 2015, the dish became famous and received a lot of attention from people all over the world. Many home chefs have sought to duplicate Patti LaBelle’s renowned sweet potato pie, despite the fact that she has not yet published an official recipe for the dish. The following is a variation that was conceived with Patti LaBelle’s pie in mind:
Parts and pieces:
For the filling of the pie:
– Two cups of mashed sweet potatoes (about two medium-sized sweet potatoes should be boiled and mashed).
a half cup of unsalted butter that has been melted – one cup of granulated sugar
– The beating of two big eggs
1 and a half cups of evaporated milk
You will need one teaspoon of vanilla essence and half a teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
ground nutmeg, one-fourth of a teaspoon
1/4 of a teaspoon of salt
– One pie crust, either handmade or purchased from a supermarket, measuring nine inches in diameter and not cooked.
The topping, which is optional, consists of either vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, provided for service.
Details to follow:
1. Preheat your oven to 175 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).
2. Prepare the pie crust by filling a pie dish of 9 inches in diameter with the dough and smoothing it out. Remove any extra dough and crimp the edges of the dough. Put away for later.
3. Combine the mashed sweet potatoes, granulated sugar, melted butter, beaten eggs, evaporated milk, vanilla essence, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. Mix until it is completely smooth and properly blended.
The fourth step is to pour the sweet potato filling into the pie crust that has been made and smooth it out evenly.
5. Bake the pie in an oven that has been warmed for fifty to sixty minutes, or until the filling has become firm and a toothpick that has been put into the middle of the pie has no residue on it.
6. Once the pie has finished baking, take it out of the oven and allow it to cool at room temperature before slicing it.
7. If you so want, serve pieces of sweet potato pie made by Patti LaBelle with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
The richness, creaminess, and abundance of toasty spices that are included inside this sweet potato pie make it an ideal dessert for any event. Although the recipe may not be exactly the same as the one used by Patti LaBelle, it is certain to be a success with both family and friends!
