Ingredients
2 cups mashed sweet potatoes
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2/3 cup heavy cream
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potatoes, sugar, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, salt, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until smooth.
Pour the sweet potato mixture into the prepared baking dish.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and cinnamon for the streusel.
Cut in the chilled butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the sweet potato base.
Bake for 40-45 minutes until the filling is set and the top is golden brown and crispy.
Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before serving to let the custard set.
Notes
Ensure your sweet potatoes are fully cooked and cooled before mashing for the smoothest texture. You can serve this warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra layer of decadence.
