Time 4h53m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ cups whole pecans
⅓ cup brown sugar
6 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter
1 egg, beaten
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup sour cream
2 eggs
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 vanilla bean

Steps:

  • Pour pecans into a blender; grind into a meal.
  • Whisk pecan meal, 1/3 cup brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Rub in butter with your fingers until mixture resembles a coarse meal and a few pea-sized pieces remain. Drizzle beaten egg over butter mixture; mix gently with a fork until dough comes together.
  • Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Form dough into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface into a 10-inch crust. Transfer to an 8-inch baking dish. Cover crust with a piece of parchment paper; fill with pie weights.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let crust cool.
  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add sweet potatoes, cover, and steam until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Strain into a bowl; mash until smooth.
  • Combine 8 ounces plus 6 ounces cream cheese and 1 cup brown sugar in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well between each addition. Beat in mashed sweet potatoes and sour cream. Add cinnamon and ginger.
  • Split vanilla bean lengthwise with the tip of a sharp knife. Holding the pod open, scrape seeds from each half using the flat side of your knife. Beat seeds into the cream cheese mixture.
  • Pour cream cheese mixture into the cooled crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until center is set, about 1 hour. Cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
