Servings: 8
Ingredients
- dough for single-crust pie
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 large eggs room temperature
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted and cooled
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- dash of salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim to 1/2 in. beyond the rim of the plate; flute edge. Place the pie plate on a rimmed baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, beat sugar, eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, flour, vanilla and salt until blended. Pour into the crust.
- Bake for around 50-60 minutes until top is light golden brown and center is almost set.
- Cool on a wire rack.
- Serve or refrigerate within 2 hours.
- Note: Do not over-bake this pie to keep the surface from cracking. The center of the pie will still be slightly wobbly after baking but will set up as it cools.
