Don't have wine or a liquer needed for your recipe. Here are some substitutions you can make to replace that alcohol in the recipe you've been dying to make....
This is the recipe I use and have had many, many compliments. I have modified it a bit though. Instead of a top crust I use a crumble topping of ¾ c. flour, ½ c.sugar and ¼ c. marg. Because of the sugar in the topping I reduce the amount in the pie to 1 c.
