Ingredients: For the Sweet Potato Base: 1 ½ cups cooked and mashed sweet potato (about 2 medium sweet potatoes) ½ cup granulated sugar ¼ cup packed light brown sugar ½ cup evaporated milk (or heavy cream for extra richness) 2 large eggs 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg Pinch of ground cloves ¼ teaspoon salt For the Peach Cobbler Topping: 1 (15-ounce) can sliced peaches, drained well (or 2 cups fresh/frozen peaches, peeled and sliced) ¼ cup granulated sugar 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon For the Cobbler Dough: 1 cup all-purpose flour ¼ cup granulated sugar 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder ¼ teaspoon salt ¼ cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces ¼ cup milk (whole or 2%) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Optional: 1 pre-made 9-inch pie crust, unbaked Instructions: Prepare the Sweet Potato Base: If using a pre-made crust, place it in your pie plate. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, granulated sugar, brown sugar, evaporated milk, eggs, melted butter, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Mix until smooth and well combined. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust. Prepare the Peach Filling: In a separate medium bowl, gently combine the drained peaches with ¼ cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, and ½ teaspoon cinnamon. Set aside. Make the Cobbler Topping: In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, ¼ cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a small separate bowl, whisk together the milk and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined (don't overmix!). Assemble the Pie: Spoon the peach filling evenly over the sweet potato mixture in the pie crust. Then, drop spoonfuls of the cobbler dough over the peaches. Don't worry if it doesn't cover everything perfectly; it's meant to be rustic! Bake: Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the sweet potato filling is set (a knife inserted near the center comes out clean) and the cobbler topping is golden brown. If the crust or topping starts to brown too quickly, you can loosely tent it with foil. Cool and Serve: Let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to fully set up. When I serve this, I love to see it in its black container, just like in my picture, topped with a generous dollop of fluffy white whipped cream and a delicate caramel-like drizzle. It just makes it look as amazing as it tastes, especially with a white spoon ready for scooping into that rich, sweet dessert! It's truly a decadent treat that everyone will remember. Pamela's Pro Tips: Sweet Potato Prep: For the smoothest sweet potato base, I like to steam or boil my sweet potatoes until very tender, then mash them thoroughly with a fork or potato masher. You can also roast them for a deeper flavor! Peaches: While canned peaches are convenient, using fresh, ripe peaches (when in season) will elevate the flavor even more. Just make sure to peel and slice them. Don't Overmix: When making the cobbler dough, mix just until combined. Overmixing can lead to a tough topping. Serving Suggestions: This pie is absolutely divine served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a dollop of whipped cream, or a drizzle of caramel sauce (or all three!). It's the perfect ending to any meal, especially during the colder months or holidays. Give this sweet potato peach cobbler pie a try, and let me know how it turns out for you! I bet it'll become a new family favorite.
