Method
 

Preparation
  1. Cook Sweet Potatoes: Start by boiling or steaming your sweet potatoes until tender. Let them cool before peeling and mashing.
  2. Blind Bake the Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place your pie crust in the pie dish and line it with parchment paper. Fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, then remove and set aside.
  3. Make Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter and sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Add the orange zest, spices, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix in the eggs until everything is well combined, and finally fold in the mashed sweet potatoes.
Baking
  1. Assemble and Bake: Pour the filling into the prepped pie crust. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the filling is set and slightly golden on top.
  2. Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool before slicing so the filling can firm up nicely.
