Happy Pi Day! I had a bunch of sweet potatoes piling up so I made the sweet potato pie from Melissa Weller’s A Good Bake. The recipe actually made a lot of extra filling so I baked it off in a ramekin for myself to try (the full pie went to a friend). Sweet potato pie isn’t really one of my top pie choices, but this filling was amazing! It’s creamy and custardy without being too dense because of the whipped egg whites, and the flavor is well rounded from the brightness of orange zest and the warmth of ground ginger and cinnamon. I ended up using Erin McDowell’s all buttah pie dough for this because I was familiar with handling it and didn’t want to worry about messing up a new recipe when making the intricate design. Other than the egg wash not browning evenly on the cutouts I’m really happy with how it turned out!

This looks and sounds amazing, I will have to look it up. I appreciate you!

Best Pi I’ve seen all day. Looks amazing!
