Description
Dense, silky, and not too rich, this sweet potato pie sings with generous spices and vanilla. The prep time is quick since you boil the sweet potatoes instead of baking them, and use a store-brought refrigerated crust. Be sure to go with deep orange-fleshed sweet potatoes (also known as yams) for the most vibrant color. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Dude That Cookz.

Directions
- Bring a large covered saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Peel sweet potatoes and cut into 2-inch chunks. Add sweet potatoes to boiling water and return to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until sweet potatoes are very tender when pierced with a fork, about 30 minutes. Drain sweet potatoes and add to a large bowl.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°F.
- Unroll pastry and place in an ungreased 9-inch pie pan. Press pastry against bottom and sides of pan. Fold any excess dough around the top edge in towards the pan. If you like, pinch top of crust a little with your fingers to flute. Set pastry aside.
