Instructions

  • Wash and scrub the sweet potato until well cleaned, then pierce several times with a fork.
  • Wrap the sweet potato with aluminum foil, and bake on 350 F for 45 minutes OR until tender.
  • Once the potato is done, let cool, then scoop out the meat of the sweet potato ( should be about 1 & 1/2 cup!).
  • Next, whip the potato filling with a handheld mixture, and be sure to remove the strings ( from the sweet potato) from the whisk.
  • Once the potato is whipped nicely ( nice & fluffy), and in the cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar. Mix well.
  • Sprinkle in the sugar, and mix.
  • Now add in the butter, and mix.
  • Once everything is well incorporated you can add in the eggs, but one at a time while mixing.
  • Add in the evaporated milk, bourbon vanilla, lemon juice, and zest.
  • Mix until everything is well incorporated, then pour the filling into the pie shell.
  • ** *The pie shell should be thawed, and not baked prior to pouring in the filling***
  • ** The oven should still be on 350 F at this time***
  • In a medium bowl combine 6 tsp cold butter, 1/2 cup all purpose flour, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup brown sugar.
  • Combine the ingredients until they resemble crumbs.
  • Evenly sprinkle the crumbs on top of the pie.
  • Bake the pie for 45-50 minutes.
  • Let the pie cool completely, before cutting into it.
  • Serve & enjoy!
