This is a recipe from "Vegan Comfort Food" by Alicia Simpson. I made it yesterday and was more then impressed! It sets up beautifully and no one would ever know it was Vegan. This really is terrific comfort food. Prep time is including bake time for potatoes if you make your own puree.

Ingredients

8 serv.
  • pie crusts9 inches
  • pureed sweet potatoes2 cups
  • granulated sugar1⁄2 cup
  • light brown sugar1⁄2 cup
  • firm silken tofu1⁄2 cup

    (in the box, not water packed!)

  • plain or vanilla soymilk1 1⁄4 cups

    (recipe calls for plain but I used light vanilla)

  • ground cinnamon1 1⁄2 teaspoons
  • nutmeg1⁄2 teaspoon
  • unbleached all-purpose flour2 tablespoons

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    For tested results I suggest fresh sweet potato puree. I used 2 med/large sweet potatoes. Peeled and cut into wedges. Covered with foil and roasted 375 until tender (about 40-50 minutes) Alicia suggests baking them whole and scooping out the pulp. This is less watery then the canned stuff.

  2. 2

    Put all the ingredients into a blender, and blend on highest speed until smooth (about 2 minutes).

  3. 3

    Pour into pie crust, and bake at 375 for 55-60 minutes.

  4. 4

    Cool on wire rack for an hour, then refrigerate at least another hour before serving. Serve chilled.
