The Best Gluten Free Sweet Potato Pie

By Roger Wallace


Nothing creates the feeling and taste of home better than homemade pie. It is no wonder that pie always features in meals such as Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. Sweet potato pie is one of the popular choices. In case you are on a gluten free diet, either as a result of health problems, allergies or diet, and personal issues, regular pie could be a no. However, there are several options available for gluten free sweet potato pie.

The only secret is having a pie crust made with ingredients devoid of this protein composite. The most recommended kind would be the extra flak sour cream pie crust that does not contain this protein composite. You can acquire all these from any of the grocery stores close to you. If they do not have the specific kind you are looking for, ask for any available gluten free pie crust products they may have.

So as to ensure the camote is pure, wash it and bake few small sized potatoes at 375 degrees. Ensure that the skin loosens and the flesh is soft before removing it. This whole procedure takes almost 30 minutes to an hour. After the yams cool, peel them cautiously. Place the already peeled yams in the food processor; process them till they turn to a thick paste.

After having the two main ingredients ready, getting all together is the next step. Prepare the baking tin and lay the crust like directed. Mix the yams with eggs, milk and butter to form a thick paste. Add sugar, salt and any spice of your liking till the texture is even.

The next step is preheating the oven and baking the crust for around ten minutes. Get the crust out and add the mixture of the sweet potato. Bake at about 350 degrees for 15 more minutes. Later, remove the pie out of the oven and let it cool. Alternatively, you can cool it in the refrigerator for almost one and a half hours. Make sure it settles for about 30 minutes at ambient temperature of about 70 degree Fahrenheit before serving.

There are many benefits accrued from diets free of this protein composite. Gluten is a protein that is found in most carbohydrates. When you limit the intake of this protein composite, you also reduce the intake of the carbohydrates hence better management of your weight. Most people do not prefer the pies devoid of this protein composite, but it is advantageous in fighting against obesity.

On the other hand, when you get this type of diet, you force yourself to get creative with your recipes. Consequently, you will find yourself trying out new things which break the monotony of having the same food types served on your table every day. The family will look forward to the fresh twists on the everyday dinner ideas.

The above are a few of the crucial things you need to be aware of on getting yourself an ideal sweet potato pie as well as some health benefits considerations. When made in the right way, this pie will transform the whole meal experience. Take your time into experimenting into the best recipes and ingredients and have fun while making it, the results will be amazing.
