Wash the sweet potatoes and place them in the air fryer.

Set the air fryer to 400°F and cook for about 30-35 minutes until softened.

Gather the liquid ingredients: whisk together 2 large eggs, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup coconut milk, 1/4 cup evaporated milk, and 1/4 cup condensed milk.

Add 1 teaspoon of mixed spice essence, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder to the egg mixture and mix well.

Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, peel them and place them in a mixing bowl.

Add 1/4 cup of softened butter to the sweet potatoes and mix until combined.

Slowly whisk in the milk mixture to the sweet potatoes until smooth and well combined.

Prepare a 9-inch pie dish with pre-made pie crust, ensuring it fits well and making a design on the edges if desired.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Pour the sweet potato mixture into the prepared pie crust and tap it gently.

Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F for about 40 minutes to 1 hour, until the center is slightly jiggly.

After 1 hour, increase the temperature to 400°F and bake for an additional 12 minutes to crisp the crust.

Let the pie cool before slicing and serving.
