Ingredients
2 pounds sweet potatoes 1 disk Test-Kitchen Piecrust All-purpose flour, for surface 2 large eggs, lightly beaten 1/2 cup whole milk 1/2 cup heavy cream 1/3 cup granulated sugar 1/4 cup light-brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 large egg whites Pinch of salt 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar 1/2 cup granulated sugar
Directions
Sweet-Potato Pie: Preheat oven to 425°F. Pierce sweet potatoes in a few places with a fork, and bake until very soft, about 1 hour 15 minutes, depending on size of potatoes.
Meanwhile, roll out dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Fit into a 9-inch pie plate, and trim edge, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
When sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, scoop out enough flesh to measure 2 cups (reserve any remaining flesh for another use), and transfer to a food processor. Add eggs, milk, cream, sugars, salt, nutmeg, and vanilla, and process until smooth.
Reduce oven temperature to 375°F. Pour filling into crust. Bake until filling puffs and cracks around edge and pie is just set, 50 to 55 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack, about 2 1/2 hours. Pie can be kept at room temperature for 1 day, covered loosely with parchment or foil.
Meringue: Beat egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar in a bowl with a mixer on low speed until foamy. Raise speed to high, and add granulated sugar in a slow, steady stream. Whisk until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 5 minutes. Spoon meringue on top of pie. Lightly brown meringue in places with a small kitchen torch (or broil about 7 inches from heat source about 45 seconds).
Cook’s Notes The egg whites in the meringue are not cooked.

Martha Stewart Member Rating: 5 stars 01/31/2013 I've made this recipe several times and everyone loves it. It's beautiful and delicious. If you are concerned about the comment regarding meringue, ask your grocer for pasteurized eggs. I use high quality, fresh, clean organic eggs and feel comfortable with that.
