Notes
To bake your sweet potato in the air fryer, place it in an air fryer at 400 and air fry for 35-45 minutes or until tender.Shortcut Sweet Potatoes: To make this easy sweet potato pie recipe even easier, you can skip baking fresh sweet potatoes, and use one of my favorite shortcuts -- steaming frozen bagged sweet potato cubes in the microwave! Just steam them according to the package directions, let them cool a bit, then purée them as usual with your immersion blender! You should have about 1½-2 cups of purée to add in to your pie filling.Homemade Graham Cracker Crust Option: To make this recipe with homemade pie crust, just follow the ingredients and steps for the graham cracker crust of my Lemon Icebox Pie, then press into the bottom and up the sides of your pie pan. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and pre-bake your pie crust for 10 minutes, then remove to cool and fill with pie filling as usual.
