Ingredients:

Pie Crust:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
1/4 cup cold water

Bourbon Sweet Potato Pie with Toasted Marshmallow Topping:
1 lb sweet potatoes
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup light brown sugar
2 eggs
2 Tbsp bourbon
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup whole milk
2 cups marshmallows

Directions:
Preheat oven 425F/218C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Use a fork to poke holes into the sweet potatoes, place potatoes onto the prepared tray. Bake for 40-50 minutes, until easily pierced with a fork. Let cool and scoop out flesh and mash the sweet potato, until smooth.

Make the pie crust in a food processor. To the processor add flour and salt, blitz to combine. Add butter, pulse until the mixture comes together and resembles crumbs. With the motor running slowly add the cold water, until the dough comes together and forms a ball. Turn dough out onto a well-floured surface, roll out to fit your pie dish.

Prick the bottom of the pie crust base with a fork and place a sheet of baking paper over the crust, make sure all the crust is covered. Fill the center with pastry beads, dried beans or rice. Bake, 20 minutes. Remove beads and baking paper.

Reduce oven temperature 350F/180C.

In a large bowl whisk mashed sweet potatoes, butter, sugar, eggs, bourbon, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together. Stir in milk. Pour mixture into prepared pie crust. Bake for 55-60 minutes, until a toothpick into the center comes out clean.

Turn oven to broil/grill.

Place an even layer of marshmallows on top and broil for 30-60 seconds, watching carefully as it could burn very fast. Once toasted, let cool completely before slicing.
