Mema Martha's Buttermilk Pie

Submitted by staceyelee

"This recipe comes from my ex husbands grandma. She taught me how to make this along with her Chicken & Dumplings. She cooked very simple food- it was always cooked with lots of love and you never left her table hungry. Use regular buttermilk- no low fat stuff ! and use REAL butter !"

 

• Ready In: 1hr
• Ingredients: 6
• Yields: 2 pies
• Serves: 8

ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup butter
• 2 cups sugar
• 3 tablespoons flour
• 3 eggs, beaten
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

directions

1. Butter should be room temp- easy to cream- DO NOT USE MELTED BUTTER !
2. Cream butter and sugar, Add flour and beaten eggs. Beat on low speed until it is all mixed well. Stir in buttermilk and vanilla. Pour into 2 small pie shells or 1 large shell.
3. Bake 45-50 minutes at 350 degees. The middle will be set- not wiggly when done- color should be golden brown. I think it tastes even better after it sits in fridge for a day.

This pie brings back such nice memories of when I was younger and my aunt would bring this to my house during the summer when she came to visit from down south. We loved it with a spoonful of whipped cream on top. I love the flavor and texture of the pie!
