This Purple Sweet Potato Pie (Kamote Pie) is an easy alternative for our ever elusive Ube pie. This Kamote Pie taste just like Ube Pie - I promise.

Hi, guys! It's another week, so we have another recipe in the blog. Today, I will be sharing with you this Kamote Pie which can be a substitute for our ever elusive Ube pie. If you don't live in the Philippines, having a fresh Ube is hard to get ahold to. So for us, OFW, we can replace fresh Ube with the frozen ones; but frozen Ube just don't cut it in terms of flavors. So I in this recipe, I replaced the Ube with Kamote hoping that this will be a delicious alternative for the Ube pie. I tell you though, that it does taste like Ube at least what  my family thought too.

This is an easy Kamote Pie to make for a function you are going to. And if you feel up to it, you can make this Sweet Potato Pie recipe I posted last week too.

HOW DOES KAMOTE PIE TASTE LIKE:

Kamote Pie taste earthy and it has more dense texture. I used coconut milk on this pie to emphasize the earthy flavor we usually remember when we eat Ube pie.

When Do I know the Kamote Pie is Ready?

It's hard to tell when the Kamote Pie is ready, but I use the toothpick test and smell test. You can smell the pie in about 40 to 45 minutes of baking and that's the time you that I do the toothpick test. Just poke the pie in the middle and when it comes out clean, it is ready.
