Buttermilk Pie |
Brian: I have to admit, buttermilk pie does not sound like the tastiest of pies. I mean if you are speaking of buttermilk biscuits, or buttermilk pancakes, I am on board. But buttermilk pie?

Angie: For me I associate buttermilk with richness, so I had high expectations of this pie. Brian's cousin Susan mentioned how much her son likes it, so let's get this pie started!
Butter, a good start to any pie! |
Brian: This is a pretty simple pie to make. You literally combine all of the ingredients together, except for the nutmeg, and bake. I started by softening the butter in the microwave.
Smooth like butter |
Angie: Add the sugar and 4 eggs.
Eggs and sugar |
Brian: The recipe calls for 3 tbsp of flour.
Add your flour and pinch of salt |
Angie: Add a pinch of salt and a tsp. of vanilla, whisk the ingredients together, and you are ready to go!
Vanilla |
Brian: Just pour your mixture into your pie shell, and it is time to bake.
Add to pie shell |
Angie: Put the pie in the oven for 15 minutes at 400 degrees F. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F and bake for an additional 45 minutes. Watch this pie though, we probably should have taken ours out a bit sooner.
Emilee giving her thumbs up |
Brian: This pie was really, really fantastic. My mom has always made a dessert called "Mary's Marvelous Mess," which is part brownie and part cake. It is very similar to what Paula Dean calls a gooey butter cake, and this is the pie version of that dessert.
Side View |
Angie: This pie was amazing. I loved the texture and the flavor. I'm telling you, it is GOOD!!
Delicious pie! |
