Southern buttermilk pie

One of the simplest pies to make, I suspect this pie had it’s origins when ladies did not have refrigerators or ice boxes to keep their milk cold so lots of it probably clabbered. So they made pie using this milk.

INGREDIENTS:

1/2c buttermilk
1 3/4c sugar
2 large eggs
3tbsp flour
pinch of salt
1 stick butter melted
1tsp vanilla
1 tsp nutmeg

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 400°. Mix everything together and pour into an unbaked 9″ pieshell. Sprinkle the top lightly with nutmeg. Bake 15min. Reduce oven to 350° and bake 45min. Cool to allow filling to set.
