Louie’s Cafe / Farmers Market and Sweet Potato Hand Pies

September 3, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 19 Comments

Hi Everyone!

Welcome to day 2 in Baton Rouge!  This morning we got up bright and early, hopped on the Limo Bus provided by Riverside Limousines.  We had the nicest chauffeur, John!  He drove us all over the place!!  Poor guy!  A bunch of food bloggers looking for the next food destination to hit!!  John drove us to our first stop which was Louie’s Cafe.

Louies Cafe

Louie’s Cafe is a 24 hour cafe nestled at the North Gates of LSU. The restaurant was established in 1941 and has been a staple to LSU students and parent crowds. Louie’s Cafe serves up a menu that ranges from there famous 10 egg veggie omelet to hamburgers to catfish and even chicken fried steak.  What a great variety!!

Since it was breakfast time, I ordered the famous a 10 veggie egg white omelet with an english muffin on the side. It was amazing and fat in size! 10 veggies!! It has sprouts, celery, broccoli just to name a few. I never had sprouts and celery in an omelet, but it was really good and very filling!!  Yes, I would sooooo order it again!
Ten Vegetable Egg White Omelet
Theresa from The Food Hunter’s Guide to Cuisine ordered the Pecan Pancakes and she was kind enough to share. They were massive and amazing tasting!!!  Don’t they look good?  You know how much I love pancakes!!!  The tops of them were slightly crispy, which made them almost cookie like to me!
Pecan Pancakes
Theresa also ordered a side of cheesy potatoes. Crazy good! That was a heaping plate of potatoes. It was sad because they all didn’t get eaten. I could see them in a food challenge! How cool would that be?
Cheesy Potatoes
The chef’s at Louie’s Cafe were funny and comical. I felt kind of funny taking a picture of them, I’m kind of mad that I didn’t. But I did get a nice shot of the kitchen. We sat at the bar,which is one of my favorite places to sit at a restaurant. I know most people don’t like to sit near the kitchen, but I like it. It’s exciting and I like to watch the chefs cook. I learn new techniques and get ideas for meals.

After our very, very, very filling breakfast we headed to Red Sticks Farmers Market to check out the local produce, locally made desserts, treats, jams and honey.

I saw this sign before entering the farmers market and I just had to take a picture!
Red Stick Farmers Market - Sorry Dogs
The farmers market looks small but it’s not! Not only are there vendors outside selling all of there precious goods, but there is also an inside, set up like individual little stores. It was pretty cool!!

Red Stick Farmers Market Tents


I found everyone in Baton Rouge to be so friendly and proud of there city. My Mom and I hit up the local honey stand to taste some sweet honey. It tastes amazing!!
Local Honey
When tasting the honey, Pete, at the stand was so nice I had to take a picture of him. In return he took a picture of my Mom and I!  I can’t believe he keeps a camera in his pocket!

The Honey Man, so sweet and nice!
I made another slide show for you on some of the different things I saw at the Red Sticks Farmers Market.
[slideshow_deploy id=’15487′]
One thing I ate at the Farmers Market was my very first sweet potato pie. Yes, I admit, I never had a sweet potato pie and I LOVE sweet potatoes!  I guess it’s because my family doesn’t care for sweet potatoes, so I don’t make it at home and was thrilled when I got the opportunity to try it. Oh my it is so good!! So good that it inspired me for today’s recipe. Here is a picture of the pie I ate.
Swet Potato Pie
Here is today’s recipe that was inspired by the the sweet potato hand pie that I had at the Red Sticks Farmers Market.  Aren’t they cute?
Mini Sweet Potato Hand Pie
This my mini version of those delicious Sweet Potato Hand Pies.  These little pies are light, flaky and filled with a sweetened sweet potato filling.  For the sweet potato filling, I cheated and used organic canned sweet potato filling with no added sugar.  If you want to make your own pie filling, just peel a sweet potatoes, dice it up, place it in water and bring to a boil.  Cook until fork tender, drain the water and place the potatoes into a food processor or blender and process until smooth.  With the reserved pie filling I have another recipe to share with you later this week, if I have time to make it.  For the pie crust, I cheated on that too!  I used one 9″ Pillsbury Pie Crust. I rolled it out thinner and took the bottom of a glass to cut out my circles.  It makes it so much easier and I really like the Pillsbury Pie Crusts.

Mini Sweet Potato Hand Pie
To add some umph to my filling of my mini pie, I used maple syrup to sweetened it up! Plus a pinch of bourbon, and cinnamon. Oh my gosh the filling is amazing and so sweet! When making this recipe, you will have a pinch of filling left over. I didn’t take that in mind in the calories of the recipe, so my calculations are a pinch higher than what the recipe really is. What do I with the left over filling your wondering? Eat it!!! It’s so good! Or spoon it in your yogurt!
Mini Sweet Potato Hand Pie

These pies are wonderful on their own, but I had to zip it up a bit by making a bowl of vanilla ice cream, drizzling it with maple syrup and chopped pecans that I picked up at Red Sticks Farmers Market. The pecans are so good and are a perfect compliment to my Mini Sweet Potato Hand Pies.  You really need to make this dessert, it’s so darn good!!!!  I made the dessert as soon as the mini pies are fresh out of the oven.  Oh m gosh!!!!  It makes me gitty and speechless.  The warm pie made the ice cream melt and coated my pie with the fabulous flavors infused in the ice cream.  *Drooling*

Prep time

Cook time

Total time

A sweet, flaky, light mini pie filled with a mixture of bourbon, maple syrup and pureed sweet potato
Serves: 14 mini pies
Ingredients
  • 1 Pillsbury 9" pie crust, thawed to room temperature
  • ¾ cup sweet potato, puree (not pie filling)
  • 2 tsp. maple syrup
  • ½ tsp. Bourbon whiskey (optional)
  • ¼ tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp. butter, melted
  • ½ tsp. turbinado sugar
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside
  3. In a bowl, add sweet potatoes, maple syrup , bourbon and cinnamon; mix until combined.
  4. Sprinkle flour onto a large piece of parchment paper. This will be for rolling out your dough. Sprinkle a little bit of flour onto your pie dough and with a rolling pin, roll pie dough out till about ¼" think. With a 3" round cookie cutter or the bottom of a glass, cut 14 (3-inch) rounds. With the scraps of dough, roll the dough and cut out until you no longer have any dough left. I had just a tiny bit of scrap left.
  5. Place about a heaping ½ teaspoon of sweet potato filling in the center of each round. Bring ½ of the pastry round over the other, and press down lightly with your fingertips to enclose the filling and expel any air. You will be making a half circle or crescent shape. Using the tines of a fork, crimp the edges of the dough to seal completely. Place on prepared baking sheet. With a pastry brush, lightly brush the tops of each pie with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar.
  6. Bake in oven for about 16 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
  7. Serve warm with ice cream, a drizzle of maple syrup and pecans or eat by themselves with a cup of coffee.
Notes
Calories do not include ice cream. Please note my calories are a little bit higher because you will have leftover pie filling.

Mini Sweet Potato Hand Pie
Now if you remember I said my family doesn’t like sweet potatoes and I never make them at home, except for fend for yourself night, but this dessert they loved.  My Husband said this is really good! I asked him, do you like the mini pies? He said yah, I do!!  ha ha I never told him they were sweet potato or he wouldn’t like them. Now if you really, really don’t like sweet potatoes, you could make this same recipe using canned pumpkin.  I have done that in the past and it is equally as good! So use whatever floats your fancy!   For the picture you see of the creamy ice cream, drizzled in oh so sweet maple syrup and topped with a light, flaky mini pie, that was for my Husband.  For me, we were just about out of ice cream, so I made a mini and I mean mini ice cream treat for me.  Glad I made this when I did because I bought the ice cream specifically for this recipe!

    Yum! Sweet potato hand pies? They sound delicious! For some reason I think these look a lot like the potato empanadas that my Argentinean friend’s mother makes… though the sweet filling (booze, brown sugar, maple syrup!!!) makes me go weak at the knees. Definitely trying this recipe. Thanks so much Jennifer! x

    OMG, that “no pets allowed” sign is just hilarious. That dog looks so guilty! Pretty much looks like my dog – always guilty of something 🙂

    I love this recipe. Bourbon NOT optional in my book. haha.

    I love sweet potato pies, but I’ve never had little individual pies like these. They are so cute! And tucked in with ice cream like that = a little piece of heaven.

      Hi Debbie,

      I don’t see why not. I would probably, freeze them before coking them. Then bake them when you needed them. Let me know how it turns out for you.

I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals.

I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle.

This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.

What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
