Buttermilk Pie Recipe

Buttermilk Pie is a traditional Southern treat that is easy to create with basic ingredients. This old-fashioned delight features a custard-like filling that doesn’t require a love for buttermilk to enjoy. Simple to prepare, it’s perfect for holidays or any occasion. Everyone who tries it loves it, making it a sure hit at any gathering. This pie also keeps well in the refrigerator for several days and pairs perfectly with milk for a snack or coffee as a dessert.

Ingredients (8 servings):

• 2 eggs
• 1 ½ cups white sugar
• ½ cup softened butter
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
• ½ teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
• 1 (9-inch) unbaked pie crust

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Beat eggs until foamy. Add butter, sugar, and flour; beat until smooth.
3. Stir in nutmeg, vanilla, lemon juice, and buttermilk. Pour into the pie shell.
4. Bake for 40 to 60 minutes until the center is firm.
5. Remove from the oven and chill for one hour before serving.

Tips:

• If the edges of your pie crust brown too quickly, cover the pie with foil for the entire baking time.
• The pie is done when the top is just golden and the center still jiggles slightly. It will set more as it cools. If a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean, your pie is ready.
