The Pie: Sweet Potato Pie with Gingersnap Crust
Winner: Sara Wyse, Minnesota
The Twist: Gingersnap Crust
Judge's Notes:
Kathleen Purvis,
Pie-Off judge and veteran food editor of the
Charlotte Observer, says, "Combining the gingersnap crust with the sweet potato filling was a natural twist without being overwhelming. . . And though the crust stays a little soft, the spicy flavors work well as a backdrop to the light and creamy filling."
