Mema Martha's Buttermilk Pie

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: 1 hr
• Serves: 8
• Yields: 2 pies

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.
