Sweet Potatoe Pie
Dutch Apple Pie
Lip Smackin' Sweet Potato Pie
(Brotherly love is not in existence when these pies are around!)
You're gonna need these goodies!
Don't be messing with nothing different! - No added Spices - you'll screw it up!
- 2 Cup mashed Sweet Potatoes
- And no sneaky stuff like using squash instead of sweet potatoes! (inside joke - sorry!)
- 3 Eggs (You can't live forever!)
- 1/2 Cup Margarine
- 1 Cup Sugar
- 1 Tbs. Flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1 Tsp. vanilla
- And no sneaky stuff like using squash instead of sweet potatoes! (inside joke - sorry!)
Roll up those sleeves!
Use a small sieve to push filling thru to get smooth texture. You'll know when you have it!
Important-If you're seeing that stringy sweet potato stuff, keep straining!
Bake in one crust - 450 degrees for 10 minutes.
Lower temp to 350 - Bake until knife comes out clean.
This may make two pies - it did for me when I used store bought pie crusts. Depends on the
size pie crusts you have.(Mom makes her own - much better if I do say so myself!)
Now-If you really want to make this special - buy a carton of real whipping cream at the store
and make your own whipping cream- yum!
Back to that Blueberry cobbler!
