- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups mashed sweet potato about 16 ounces
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger

- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Spray a 9″ pie plate with non-stick cooking spray.

Pour into the prepared pan. 2 large eggs, 2 cups mashed sweet potato, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, 1 can evaporated milk
- In a medium bowl, use a pastry cutter to cut together the oats, sugar, flour, baking soda, baking powder and butter until you get coarse crumbs. 1/3 cup old-fashioned oats, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon baking powder, 1/4 cup cold butter
- Sprinkle the oat crumbs over the top of the sweet potato filling.
- Bake for about 38-40 minutes, until the pie is mostly set (the center may still be slightly jiggly). Internal temperature of the pie should be about 175ºF.
- Allow the crisp to cool to room temperature on a wire rack. Then cover and refrigerate until serving.
Notes
If the sweet potatoes are cold, the crisp may take longer to bake. Warm the mashed potatoes first before mixing for even baking.
