Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 deep dish pie shell (either your own recipe or storebought)
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 400°F.2
Beat the butter and sugar together until light.3
Add the eggs and beat; then beat in vanilla.4
Sift the dry ingredients together and add to the batter alternatively with the buttermilk; beat until smooth.5
Pour into a deep dish pie shell and bake at 400F for 10 minutes, reduce heat to 350F and bake for 50-60 additional minutes.6
Pie should turn a nice golden brown and a knife inserted should come out clean.7
I think it is absolutely best when it is just still warm. (Not too hot, or it will be like napalm.).

This pie is delicious!! I made one with the full amount of sugar,and one with about 1 1/4 cups. since i have quite a sweet tooth i liked them both. I kicked the temp down to 350 as soon as i put the pie in the oven so it wouldnt burn before set. Also placing a layer of foil over the pie can keep it from burning before the pie is set. I did add about a tablespoon of lemon zest to give it kind of a kick and it turned out really good. I plan on making several of these during the holidays for friends and family. Thanks for posting this!

My attempt turned out great. I did substitute some splenda for a little bit of the sugar.

Delicious! I made it with a pre-made shortbread crust. Next time, I'm going to use an Oreo Cookie crust and a mini muffin pan to make individual tartlets for a Memorial Day picnic. Thanks for the recipe, Thomas!

This recipe randomly came up while I was searching for something else, and I'm sure glad it did. I had never heard of buttermilk pie before, but just loved this! It was like a pie-full of sweet, creamy, buttery custard... it was great warm AND after being popped into the fridge. Perfect recipe!
