Sweet Potato Pumpkin Pie

A Black folks’ sweet potato pie recipe is a delightful Thanksgiving and Christmas dessert packed with flavorful seasonings and spices in the tradition of Black folks’ soul food cooking. 

Black Folks Sweet Potato Pie Recipe

oz evaporated milk (1 can)

brown sugar

butter (unsalted butter, melted (or vegan butter))

vanilla extract

ginger (minced)

nutmeg

cloves

Grease a 9-inch pie pan and set it aside.

See my recipe HERE for homemade almond flour pie crust, or you can use a store-bought pie crust, dough, or pie shell that may or may not come with its own pie pan.

Pro tip: Use an Instant Pot pressure cooker to soften and peel the sweet potatoes quickly and almost effortlessly!

Open the Instant Pot lid and fill the stainless-steel inner pot with water to the ½ mark.

Add the scrubbed sweet potatoes to the pot of water.

Close the Instant Pot lid (make sure the valve is up – in the position for sealing) and pressure cook on high for 12 minutes to loosen the potato skin.

When the cooking time is finished, allow a natural pressure release for at least 12 minutes.

To open the Instant Pot lid, move the valve to ‘venting’ and manually release any remaining pressure, if applicable.

Pour the water and sweet potatoes into a colander in the sink to drain the hot water from the potatoes.

Once the sweet potatoes are cool to the touch, peel and discard the skin.

Gather 3 cups of sweet potato flesh.

Add to either the Instant Pot Ace blender or an electric mixer the sweet potato flesh, evaporated milk, brown sugar, egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, ground cloves, and salt.

Pulse or mix until the ingredients are combined and smooth.

Pour the sweet potato mixture into the pie crust.

Bake the sweet potato pie at 350 degrees F: in a conventional oven for 28-30 minutes, in the Instant Pot Omni Plus oven for 24-26 minutes, or until the pie is puffed and firm in the center.

Allow the sweet potato pie to cool for at least 30 minutes.

Garnish with whipped cream and cinnamon sprinkled on top.

Serve this Black folks’ sweet potato pie recipe warm and enjoy!

Candied yams are an old-fashioned African-American recipe. A sweet potato soul food side dish cooked to perfection in a cinnamon-brown sugar glaze.

Black Folks Southern Candied Yams

sweet potatoes (3 -3 ½ pounds)

water (cool water)

water

butter (unsalted butter,

½ cup sugar (granulated)

cinnamon (of ground)

maple syrup

ginger (ground

(ground)

Wash the sweet potatoes. (I like to use this vegetable scrubber HERE.)

Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into thick round wedges.

Then set them aside to soak in a bowl of cool water to prevent browning while you’re preparing the candied yams syrup.

Melt the butter in a medium-sized bowl in the microwave.

Add the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup, ginger, ground clove, and vanilla extract to the melted butter.

Mix the ingredients well to create the syrup glaze for the candied yams.

Next, Drain the sweet potato rounds in a colander.

Open the Instant Pot lid and add ½ a cup of water and the sweet potato rounds to the stainless-steel inner pot.

Pour the syrup glaze over the sweet potatoes.

Close the Instant Pot lid (make sure the valve is up – in the position for sealing) and pressure cook on high for 5 minutes.

When the cooking time is finished, allow a natural pressure release for at least 5 minutes.

Optional – Open the Instant Pot lid and sprinkle the miniature marshmallows over the cooked, candied yams.

With the lid placed not entirely on the Instant Pot (in a resting position, so it doesn’t lock back into position on the pot) continue with the setting on ‘keep warm.’

After about 5 minutes, check to see if the marshmallows have melted.

Once the marshmallows are melted, turn off the Instant Pot and transfer your Black folks’ Southern candied yams recipe to a serving dish.

Serve right away and enjoy!

Get ready for an unforgettable Thanksgiving Day with this soul food inspired Southern old-fashioned Thanksgiving dressing recipe. A delicious casserole dish everyone around the dinner table loves!

Old Fashioned Thanksgiving Dressing Recipe

cornmeal (medium grind)

all-purpose flour

baking powder

unsalted butter

heavy whipping cream

onion

celery (diced)

thyme (fresh

rosemary (fresh

sage (ground)

parsley (finely chopped)

chicken stock (or chicken broth)

black pepper

egg (large)

Can you use Jiffy cornbread? Check out

Preheat the conventional or Instant Pot Omni Plus oven to bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes (although you may not use all this time to melt the butter).

Place the butter in an 8-inch baking pan or skillet and melt in the oven for approximately 5 minutes.

While the butter is melting, combine the dry ingredients (cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar) with the heavy cream in a medium-sized mixing bowl.

Pour the melted butter from the baking pan into the mixing bowl and mix all the ingredients.

Pour the cornbread batter into the baking pan or skillet.

Bake at 350 degrees F. In the conventional oven, bake for 20-25 minutes. Bake in the IP Omni Plus oven for 18-20 minutes.

When baking has finished, allow the cornbread to cool for approx. 10 minutes.

Cut the bread lengthwise, then across, into 1-inch bread cubes, and set aside.

Instructions for the homemade cornbread

Grease an 8″ or similar-sized baking dish, transfer the set-aside cornbread cubes to the pre-greased dish, and then set aside the cornbread cubes.

Remove the lid from the Instant Pot and turn on the sauté setting for 8 minutes.

With the lid off, melt ¼ cup of butter.

Add the chopped onion, celery, thyme, rosemary, and sage.

Stir to coat the vegetables in the herbs and melted butter, and then sauté until they soften and slightly brown.

Add the chicken stock, salt, and pepper to the inner pot’s simmer, and stir to combine.

Remove the herb mixture from the heat and set aside.

Allow the mixture to cool to the touch so it can be mixed with the egg. (You don’t want the egg to cook from the residual heat and scramble!)

While the herbs are cooling off, beat the egg with the parsley in a medium-sized bowl.

Pour the egg and parsley mixture over the cubed cornbread in the set-aside baking dish, and gently fold in the mixture evenly with the bread cubes. 

Then, pour the cooled herb mixture into the cornbread and egg mixture, evenly distributing with your pour.

Cut the 1 tablespoon of butter into small pats and place them all around on top of the dressing.

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake at 350 degrees F for 35 minutes in the conventional oven. Bake for 30 minutes if using the Omni Plus oven.

Uncover and bake until golden, 10-15 more minutes (conventional oven) or 10 minutes (Omni Plus oven).

Serve this old-fashioned Thanksgiving dressing recipe warm, and enjoy! Optional – serve with gravy on top.
