Buttermilk Pie

Yes,  I said Buttermilk Pie.  It is delicious.  A tart, sweet, tangy concoction that is easy to make and satisfying on many levels.  

I made this pie for Thanksgiving and those who turned up their noses at the buttermilk were pleasantly surprised.


I used this recipe from AllRecipes

Ingredients:

3 eggs
1/2 cup butter, softened
1& 1/2 cup sugar
3 TBS all purpose flour
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 TBS lemon juice
1 cup buttermilk
1/8 tsp grated nutmeg
1- 9 inch pie crust

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Beat eggs until frothy; add butter, sugar, and flour.  Beat until smooth.  Stir in buttermilk, vanilla, lemon juice and nutmeg; pour into pie shell.  Bake for 40 minutes to an hour, until center is firm.  

This is delicious served warm, cold or at room temperature.  


Let me know when you make one--I'll be right over!
