Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil.

Place sweet potatoes in the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven until easily pierced with a fork and skins loosen, 30 to 45 minutes. Cool potatoes, then peel and discard skins. Transfer potato flesh to a bowl.

Mash potatoes with a potato masher. Beat in sugar, evaporated milk, butter, corn syrup, eggs, flour, vanilla extract, apple pie spice, and salt with an electric mixer until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Pour sweet potato batter into pie crust. Excess batter can be reserved for another use.

Bake in the preheated oven until pie is set and crust is browned, 45 to 50 minutes.
