For a deeper flavor, roast the sweet potatoes instead of boiling them. If the pie crust edges are browning too quickly, cover them with foil. Use a kitchen torch to brulee the pecan topping instead of broiling for more control. A dash of nutmeg adds warmth to the filling. Make sure the sweet potatoes are completely smooth to avoid a lumpy filling.
