1. Boil sweet potato whole in skin for 40 to 50 minutes, or until done. Run cold water over the sweet potato, and remove the skin.
2. Break apart sweet potato in a bowl. Add butter, and mix well with mixer. Stir in sugar, milk, eggs, nutmeg, cinnamon, self-rising flour, pinch of salt and vanilla. Beat on medium speed until mixture is smooth. Pour filling into an unbaked pie crust.
