Serves: 12
Ingredients
  • 2 (14.1-oz.) pkg. refrigerated pie crusts, thawed
  • 12 frozen yam patties, thawed
  • 12 tsp. dark brown sugar
  • 6 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1 c. pecan pieces
  • 1 lg. egg
  • 2 tsp. whole milk
  • 6 tsp. granulated sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. On a floured surface, unfold pie crusts, and cut into 24 rounds with a 4½-inch cutter. Re-roll excess, if necessary.
  3. Arrange 12 pie crust circles on baking sheet with space in-between. Place a sweet potato patty in the middle of each. Divide brown sugar, cinnamon, and pecan pieces evenly among pies.
  4. Cover pies with remaining pie crust. Crimp edges together tightly with fingers. Make sure all edges are well sealed.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together egg and milk. Brush pie crust with egg wash, and top with sugar. Cut 3 small holes in top of each pie with a small knife. Bake pies until browned, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer pies to cooling rack, and let cool for 5 minutes.
