This recipe is very popular here in the South. It's a particular favorite at our house because we always have plenty of sweet potatoes in our garden. Try it with a dollop of whipped cream. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1-2/3 cups sugar |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
pinch salt |
1 cup mashed sweet potatoes |
2 eggs |
1/4 cup light corn syrup |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
3/4 cup evaporated milk |
1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches) |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, nutmeg and salt. In a large bowl, beat the potatoes, eggs, corn syrup, butter and sugar mixture. Gradually stir in milk. Pour into pastry shell.
2. Bake at 350° for 55-60 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 8 servings.
