SWEET POTATO PIE
Ingredients
2 c sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed (about 3)
1 1/2 c sugar
2 tablespoons flour
1 can evaporated milk (5 oz), divided into parts
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 9″ pie crust, unbaked
Icing
1/2 c sugar
2 1/4 tsp. flour
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tbsp evaporated milk (from can above)
1/4 c pecan halves, optional
Directions for use
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place unbaked pie crust on a cookie sheet.
2. In a bowl, combine sugar, flour, milk (reserve 2 tablespoons for glaze), egg and vanilla.
3. Stir in sweet potatoes. Pour into pie shell.
4. For glaze, combine sugar, flour, butter and 2 tablespoons milk. Drizzle over sweet potato mixture, but don’t overdo it! If desired, top with pecan halves.
5. Bake for 1 hour or until crust is golden brown and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
6. Tip: Sometimes I don’t even use the glaze, especially if I use leftover sweet potato wedges. It can get a little too sweet!
