This is a favorite recipe of the men at the Top Gun Fighter School.
2 cups sweet potatoes, mashed
3 eggs
4 tablespoons margarine
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup bourbon
1 pie crust (9 inch), unbaked
Mix together all ingredients thoroughly. Pour into 9-inch unbaked pie crust and bake at 325 degrees for 45 minutes.
This has a strong bourbon taste. You might want to use only half the bourbon called for with another liquid to make up the remaining liquid needed.
Serving Ideas : Serve at Thanksgiving and Christmas especially.
