Many people eagerly embrace the arrival of winter, looking forward to indulging in the warmth and comfort of sweet potatoes.

While sweet potatoes grace our tables throughout the year, it's during the cold winter months that their appeal becomes truly irresistible.

No matter who you are, you'll undoubtedly applaud the simplicity of this recipe – a mere blend and stir, resulting in a fantastic sweet potato pie.

The secret to its soft and sticky texture lies in the use of glutinous rice flour.

Here's a breakdown of the ingredients needed for this delectable treat: 1 sweet potato, 3 slices of cheese, 20g of sugar, 300g of glutinous rice flour, 250ml of milk, 100g of cream, 30g of corn oil, and 2 eggs.

Don't forget a 6-inch cake mold and greaseproof paper.

Let's dive into the easy-to-follow steps:

10. Pour the remaining glutinous rice paste into the mold, shaking it to even out the mixture.

11. Bake the pie in the preheated oven at 170 degrees Celsius for 40 minutes.

12. Once baked, immediately remove the pie from the mold, peel off the greaseproof paper, and transfer it to a plate.

13. Slice the pie into portions, revealing its caramelized color and the delightful aroma of sweet potato and glutinous rice.
