Comment: Algie Petrere is another
winner in our 2003 Stirrin' It Up for the Holidays recipe contest.
The bourbon gives this wonderful sweet potato pie a piquant kick.
If you want to cut back on the liquor, Algie recommends that you
substitute half of the bourbon with another liquid such as juice
from canning figs or pears.
Ingredients:
2 cups mashed sweet potatoes
½ cup bourbon
3 eggs
4 tbsp softened margarine
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 (9-inch) uncooked pie shell
Method:
Preheat oven to 325° F. Combine all ingredients. Using a wire
whisk, mix ingredients thoroughly. Pour mixture into the pie shell.
Bake for 45 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and center is
just set.
