Buttermilk-Pie
Step 1: Prepare the Pie Crust
If you’re using a homemade pie crust, prepare and roll it out into a 9-inch pie dish. If using a store-bought crust, follow the package instructions for pre-baking or prepare as necessary.
Step 2: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready when you’re finished preparing the filling.
Step 3: Mix the Filling Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and flour until well combined. Add the eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and nutmeg (if using). Mix until smooth and creamy.
Step 4: Pour the Filling into the Pie Crust
Pour the prepared filling into the unbaked pie crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula if needed.
Step 5: Bake the Pie
Place the filled pie crust in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown. You can test for doneness by gently jiggling the pie—if the center is firm and doesn’t wobble excessively, it’s done.
Step 6: Cool and Serve
Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. After cooling, you can optionally dust the top with powdered sugar for a decorative touch.
