Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 300 grams granulated sugar
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 240 milliliters buttermilk
- 20 grams all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 piece unbaked 9-inch pie crust
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Allow it to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until smooth and creamy.
Step 4
Gradually stir in the melted butter, followed by the buttermilk, all-purpose flour, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and salt. Mix until fully combined and the filling is smooth.
Step 5
Place your unbaked 9-inch pie crust in a pie pan. Pour the prepared filling into the crust.
Step 6
Carefully transfer the pie to the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden. When done, the center may jiggle slightly but will firm up as it cools.
Step 7
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool at room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Step 8
Slice and serve the pie plain or with a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
