Sweet Potato Pie 2013 sweet kicthen

Sweet Potato Pie    





Many of my Thanksgivings have been spent in Logansport, Louisiana
at my Grandma Neva's and my Grandpa Charles's house. The food is
always good and plentiful, but my favorite dish comes after the turkey and
dressing and all the fixings. I always make sure I get the first piece of my
favorite holiday dish - sweet potato pie.
I am in heaven when I sink my teeth into that first piece of this sweet
and delicious pie. I really just want to take the whole thing and a large
spoon and eat the entire pie all by myself. Sweet potato pie is like a good
friend that you get to see on a special day.
Louisiana is known for its wonderful sweet potatoes, so it just makes
sense that it is the main ingredient in my family's favorite holiday dessert.
Did you know that the sweet potato is even the state vegetable of
Louisiana?
If you want to blow your mind with this golden orange pie just follow
this recipe. I know that your mouth will be watering as you smell this
amazing dessert baking.
1 pie crust
2 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
lean evaporated milk (5 ounces)
3 Tbsp butter (melted)
1 tsp shredded lemon peel
1 dash ground nutmeg
2 medium sweet potatoes (cooked and mashed)
Directions: Preheat oven to 350° F. Prepare pastry and line a pie
plate. In a bowl beat eggs, add sugar, evaporated milk, butter, lemon peel,
and nutmeg. Whisk in sweet potatoes until combined. Pour into crust-lined
pie plate. Cover edges of pastry with foil. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove
foil and bake 20 to 30 more minutes. Let cool. Cover and refrigerate.
Sweet potato pie has been a tradition in my family since before I was
born. I sure hope it continues for many years to come.

enjoy!!!!!!
