OLD FASHION SWEET POTATO PIE2 cups peeled, cooked sweet potatoes

1 1/4 cups sugar

1/2 stick melted butter

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract or 1 to 2 tablespoons Bourbon

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1 cup milk

9-inch unbaked pie crust

3 egg whites

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

For the filling, using an electric hand mixer, combine the potatoes, 1 cup of the sugar, the butter, eggs, vanilla, salt, and spices. Mix thoroughly. Add the milk and continue to mix. Pour the filling into the pie crust and bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Place the pie on a rack and cool to room temperature before covering with meringue.

For the meringue, using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form; beat in the remaining 1/4 cup sugar 1 tablespoon at a time. Continue beating until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is glossy and stiff, but not dry. With a rubber spatula, spoon the meringue onto the pie, forming peaks. Make sure the meringue touches the crust all around. Sprinkle with a pinch of granulated sugar. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until delicately browned. Cool and serve.

Sweet Potato Pie is a Southern dish, so you can find recipes in many Southern cookbooks. For example, there's a recipe in the The Lee Bros. Southern Cookbook: Stories and Recipes for Southerners and Would-be Southerners and The Sweet Potato Cookbook.

Many cooks keep their secret ingredients for sweet potato pie locked up in a safe, but the basic pie should contain, at a minimum, cooked sweet potatos, butter, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla extract, milk, and eggs. The resulting mixture is poured into a piecrust and baked.
